Interview Answers: How Well Can You Really Prepare?
I came across an interesting entry on For Job Seekers Blog about how there are no perfect answers to questions you may be asked during different kinds of interviews. And you know what? He has got a great point.
Yes, interview preparation is vital. You should practice what you want to say to different questions. However, you don’t want to ‘memorize’ your asnwers in that you sound like a robot to the interviewer. That will be a complete turnoff immediately.
So read up on interview articles. You can find some on Nothing but Interviews. There are lots of different tips out there that you should read and practice. Don’t think you know everything. There just might be something out there that you have not thought of before.
Now, I review a lot of career products but you’ll see that I don’t have a recommendation for a good interview one. I haven’t really found one that provides any information that isn’t found freely on the Internet. However, there is one that is coming out in January that gives job seekers a HUGE edge in landing jobs. I know, January is a few months away (hopefully you’ll have a new job by then!) but I’ll be sure to keep you in the loop. And if I come across any other ones along the way, I’ll be sure to pass them onto you.
