[QUOTE="thomas91169, post: 13143384, member: 40530"] This. Be prepared for a TOUGH interviewer. Know the standard questions "Tell me a bit about yourself", "Whats your strengths/weaknesses", etc. Write them down and memorize them. If they ask you the "tell me a bit about yourself" dont back yourself into just talking about your resume; theyve read that, they know it already. Expand on what made you the person you are today, for me since im in construction, I brush upon growing up with legos and building things and always wanting to know how everything works, and that at almost every point in the day im looking at things and dissecting them in my mind, ill let them know my upbringing and area was a manufacturing basis for the valley at one point so it was natural my progression into a manufacturing/construction field even with zero formal education past HS. My GF is a HR Manager. I get the insider scoop on how to act when it comes to interviews. Luckily for me though, just about every legit interview ive been to for a company that wanted to hire me and wasnt just interviewing to meet a corporate procedure when the position was already taken, have all been very casual. I do formal interviews shitty so ive always prepared for the worst but hoped for the best. Try to connect with the interviewer. If they touch on anything they do in their life or how they go about doing something, grab onto that and build from it. A really good interviewer will not only see you doing this, but realize that you can take command of a situation even if you are going in at a disadvantage. [/QUOTE]
