Now Hiring? Tips for Conducting Interviews

It's not always a candidate's fault when a job interview goes south.

Hiring managers can commit a litany of sins, such as interrupting interviews to answer phone calls, failing to take notes, acting bored or distracted, bad-mouthing their own companies, bullying applicants, or asking "gotcha" questions for no reason at all, say human-resources consultants. The cost of poor interviews ranges from bad hires to alienated job applicants. At worst, untrained hiring managers can open their employers to lawsuits by asking questions deemed illegal by federal nondiscrimination standards. Read Article

Prestigious People and the Power Words - Netsoft Career Center

It's All About Me

Three words can help job seekers ace the interview: "I," "me" and "my."

Job candidates who talk about themselves in the first person come across as more direct and are perceived as better hires, compared with candidates who use the third person. The latter group is perceived as avoidant and low-performing, according to a new study by Leadership IQ, a Washington leadership training and research firm. Read entire article here...

Why You Shouldn't Take a Counteroffer

Thinking about using a potential employer's job offer to get your current company to counter and pay you more money?

Stop right there.

Using another job offer as a bargaining chip may be tempting, but too often, it ends badly. If you want a raise, then negotiate it on your own merits--or prepare to move on.
