How to appear in an interview - VII


Return to your resume


The campaign is over; now you need to put the information you've gathered to good use. Rewrite your resume, aiming it at the specific needs or preferences you've uncovered. Stress those areas of expertise that match up with weaknesses in their current personnel; and if you've uncovered any sensitive areas, don't go there.


Your cover letter can now be directed towards a specific person, maybe even someone you've already talked to. Write to them, refer to your meeting, if any, and keep it as specific as possible.

Summary 

Finally, when you get to the interview, you are in a great position. Use your knowledge to ask relevant questions and to give the impression that you will be a real asset to the company. Anything you've learned in your meetings or your phone chats can be brought out here; show the interviewer that you're sympathetic to the organization's problems and needs.



Your research has taken a lot of time and energy, but the results are well worth it. By taking the initiative, you've greatly improved your overall chances of getting hired. Just because you know what you're talking about, you have a clear advantage over the other, uninformed job seekers who will be knocking on the same corporate door.


Next we will discuss about the Goals, Till then bye
