What sets you apart from the other applicants in this interview (group interview) Since you have no idea of what other applicants are bringing to the table---concentrate on your skills and experience, and your presentation. It is a matching game... "they need...." and "You can provide....". Consider the key elements of the job and how you can add value to the organization. Research...the job, the
organization, the market, the industry Practice a short info-mercial on yourself...your key selling points. Understanding yourself and what they need can be "THE" point that sets you ahead of the others. More salary questions? E-mail us! Tell us about yourself. This is a killer question that more often than not is raised by an unskilled interviewer who does not know what else to ask. When raised by a skillful interviewer though it may be a very effective question that will provide more information than any other single question (or even a series of them). The problem is that when the question is raised you don't know which your interviewer is. Here are some suggestions that will work regardless. First be prepared with a thumbnail sketch that you have rehearsed before your meeting. Your answer should be no more than one minute long and include a description of where you have been recently as well as what you would like to do next. "I am an accounting professional with four years corporate experience who would now like to move over onto the public accounting side," is a brief example. You might add at the end "Since your firm is highly regarded, I was very interested in learning more about the opportunities here." Second, after you made you brief comment, either be quiet or close with, "Is there anything you would like me to add." Or, "Is that what you were hoping I would provide?" Third, listen carefully to the feedback to see if your answer was not sufficient, so that you might learn what specifically the interviewer would like you to add. Last respond to the comment with one more brief comment and ask "Have I answered your question/issue/concern?" Then listen again. ___________________ More from Matt & Nan DeLuca and the experts at job-interview.net in the Complete Interview Guide. Get the winning edge in the job interview:
