How to Genuinely Impress Your Interviewer

Before the Job Interview

image of man behind a deskThe first of my job interview tips is that you need to dress neatly for your job interview. There is no need to wear a three-piece suit, or an elegant evening dress, but you do need to dress professionally. Even if the position is a casual dress position, you still need to dress professionally for the job interview.

Show up 15 minutes early for the job interview. Bring a legal pad portfolio with copies of all the documents that you have sent previously to the employer in case they may need another, being prepared is very important. This will show the interviewer that you are a prompt person and that have respect for their time. If you show up late you are proving to them that you are an irresponsible person and you may not be right for the job.

Prepare for the job interview by doing a little research on the company. It is not necessary to memorize the entire company profile, but it is nice to know a little about the company. You are then able to ask questions about the job, the company, and the potential advancement opportunities that may be available if you know more about where you are having your job interview.

During the Job Interview

Another important tip to follow is to make sure that you do not use slang or cursing during your job interview. I know that in everyday life, most of us tend to use slang and let a few words slip now and then, but you want to curb that while in an interview. I am not saying that you need to be totally proper and use Elizabethan English during your job interview, but avoid saying, “ya know” and “I’m not even lying about that”.

It is important while in the job interview that you maintain eye contact with your interviewer. You do not however want to stare them down. When you keep eye contact you are able to show your potential employer that you are able to be confident in who you are and the job that you want. You also show your ability to be unafraid of speaking with people and show your magnetic personality.

Smile! Nothing impresses a job interviewer more than someone with a positive attitude. You don’t want to give them a smile like the Joker from Batman, but you do want to show that you are an easygoing person and show them you are a positive person. An easygoing person is more likely going to get along with more people in the company than someone that is a little difficult or has less personality.

Make sure when you enter the room for the job interview that you shake the hand of each person in the room and introduce yourself. Maintain eye contact when you do so and smile. This again will show the interview or panel of job interviewers that you are and that you are able to take hold of this job and run with it.

After the Job Interview

After the job interview, make sure to send a thank you note. It is considered very good job interview etiquette to send one as soon as you get home. Make sure to thank them for seeing you on the specific date (to remind them) and to remind them of your strengths. Let them know how much interest you have in the job and how sincere your interest really is. Using the thank you letter will allow your potential employer hopefully to turn into your employer!

Points to Keep In Mind:

  • Send thank you letter
  • Shake hands
  • Introduce yourself
  • Smile
  • Eye contact
  • No slang or cursing
  • Research company
  • Show up 15 minutes early
  • Bring extra resumes
  • Dress nicely

The two Congregations of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word in Houston and San Antonio share a common mission of providing the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, which began more than 130 years ago. The shared legacy of the two Congregations dates back to 1866 when three Sisters Religious came from France in response to a call from Catholic Bishop Claude M. Dubuis to come to Texas to help care for the sick and infirm. In the leading port city of Galveston, the Sisters founded the Congregation of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word and opened the first Catholic hospital in the state. In 1869, three members of the Congregation traveled to San Antonio and established Santa Rosa Hospital. Due to the distance between the cities and the problems of transportation at the time, the Congregation in San Antonio became a separate order with the same name as its founding Congregation.

How To Create A Career Path

As a wise person once observed, "If you don't know where you're going, any road will take you there." An employee who doesn't take time to look at where he is and where he wants to be runs the risk of overlooking opportunities, spinning in his tracks and never quite feeling that he has control over his own destiny.

Fortunately, developing a career path isn't as daunting a task as it may appear. Here, experts offer tips on how to chart a course -- including when to stop and evaluate that you're still heading in the direction that's right for you.

Self-awareness

Knowing what you want begins with knowing yourself. An honest appraisal is key to figuring out your ultimate goals.

"I've consulted with people about their careers for over 20 years, and what I've learned is that there are threads that run through our entire lives. It's also true of our careers," says Aricia LaFrance, a career consultant and founder of marketyourway.com. "It's likely that you have, for example, always loved numbers or maybe you've always enjoyed helping people. Awareness of those threads can create a satisfying career path. Think life-long interests when it comes to career planning and you'll likely be happier in each job along the way."

Joel Garfinkle, founder of dreamjobcoaching.com, recommends thoroughly reviewing everything you have accomplished in your career. "Focus on the experiences that have taught you important lessons and helped you learn new skills. Look at your résumé and peruse any performance reviews and other feedback you have on hand. Then, assess what you have learned. Take note of any parallels and key information that stands out. As you analyze your past, define and characterize the current state of your career, your 'point A.'"

Sara LaForest and Tony Kubica -- co-founders of Kubica LaForest Consulting (a management consulting and performance improvement company serving clients nationwide) -- suggest taking a business personality and performance profile assessment to use as a guide as to what you are likely to do well at, what you are likely not going to enjoy and conditions that can potentially stress you and limit your success. They also recommend talking about career ideas and goals with people who know you well and asking for honest feedback.

Creating a plan

"A properly prepared plan of action for your own future career will help you focus on where you are heading and not the immediate day-to-day demands of your job," Garfinkle says. "Goals describe your destination, your 'point B.' If your goals are unclear, your career progression will be unfocused and haphazard." Questions that he suggests asking oneself in order to help clarify goals include:
  • What level of responsibility do you want to have?
  • What projects would you like to head?
  • What results do you want to achieve in your department or organization?
  • What type of company do you want to work for (culture, size, integrity, reputation, etc.)?
  • What problems or concerns do you care enough about to focus your entire career on solving?
  • What type of environment do you want to work in?
  • What type of people do you like to work with?
  • What compensation (salary, benefits) do you desire?
  • What type of work/life balance is best for you?

"When you're setting goals, think about the end result and then work out the details," LaFrance says. "Then, break those details down into do-able pieces. Each goal should have small, clearly defined action steps to help you get there."

Re-evaluating goals

Don't think of a career path as a one-way road from which you can never divert. Instead, plan on periodically looking at the map you've devised to see if it is still your best route. Pay especially close attention any time there is a major life event (such as the birth of a baby) that may impact your priorities.

Likewise, the job world itself is not a steady entity. "Mapping out a career 10 to 15 years into the future is difficult and can quickly become obsolete because there are many variables that affect a person's career, such as the changing economy, the changing focus on how work is done and rapid technological advancements," LaForest and Kubica note.

While it may seem that creating a career path would be limiting in the face of changes and challenges, the opposite is actually true. A well-designed roadmap makes for easier navigation by laying out the larger picture.

"A career plan -- whether it's 5 to 10 years down the road -- helps you take a long, thoughtful view of your working life. You'll be able to look at things in terms of what's best vs. what's speediest, what's meaningful vs. what's easy," Garfinkle says.

Know where you want to go, and chances are you'll get there.
