Hub You - How To Lose A Job During The Job Interview
As business professionals, we spend lots of our time interacting with all sorts of people – clients, suppliers, consultants etc. Our interactions can be in person, on the telephone, by email or even these days, by sms.If you do some reading on the subject, you’ll quickly find the predominant school of thought is that all communication must be “professional”, and that if it’s not, you risk d

Another one of those pharmaceutical sales interview questions that can take you into "deadly territory" are any questions that force you to respond to a negative scenario, such as the following:1. "Why were you fired?"2. "Why did you receive such a poor performance rating on your last review?"3. "Why were you laid off?"
Often, you leave a job interview feeling good about your effort but when you don’t get the job offer, you are left wondering what went wrong.
This is especially true these days where employers are often hesitant to provide real reasons for turning you down for or where they simply don’t give you a reason that suffices.
Telling you that they found “someone more suited for the position” doesn’t really help you improve your interviewing skills, does it?
Here are some tips to help you ensure you are doing everything right during the interview process and to ensure you aren’t doing anything unwittingly that might be costing you jobs:
1. Don’t show up for the interview late or unprepared. There is no excuse for either. This should be obvious but I’ve spoken with plenty of candidates who don’t think arriving 5 minutes late for an interview is a big deal. Trust me, it is.
2. Don’t under dress for the interview. It’s usually best to over dress if you’re not sure how to dress for the interview. Business attire is almost always standard for professional positions.
3. Don’t forget to offer the interviewer a firm handshake and remember to look them in the eye and address them by name when introducing yourself. Maintain eye contact during the interview but don’t stare at them constantly and freak them out.

The only thing that might be more difficult to deal with than an interviewer who asks tough, probing questions is an interviewer who hasn’t a clue how to interview. You leave the interview feeling as if you ignited no interest, bombed the interview, and surely won’t be asked back. Where was the scintillating conversation? The professional give and take about the industry and your skills?<

Job interviews are a right of passage for young adults and a real pain in the you know what for everyone else. They are preceded by stress, nervousness and uncertainty. The problem is that your prospective employer is looking for certain things out of you and you have no idea what they are.

The best brands always try to do the right thing, so that their reputations will remain unsullied. But beyond that they grow, evolve and get better with time, while maintaining their special qualities from the past.We all have a personal brand with social, cultural, intellectual, and personal needs that may not necessarily be addressed in our daily work. Address these needs and you begin to
4. Don’t make it look like you are money-motivated. Employers aren’t interested to hire people who are simply looking for a raise. Let them bring up the issue of money, not you. It will come up when the time is right and the longer you delay the issue of money, the better for you.
5. Don’t focus on your needs during the interview. Employers hire people to solve a problem not because they have a spare seat to fill. Address the needs of the employer, not what you need.
6. Don’t disparage your current or former employers. Speaking poorly about your current or former employers is just bad form and does not make you look good.
7. Don’t give away secrets about your employer or discuss any confidential information you know about them during the interview process even if you are asked about it. Trust is highly important when looking for a new staff member and spilling the beans about confidential information shows that you are not trustworthy.
8. Don’t leave your cellphone or pager on during the Interview and certainly don’t answer it if it rings.
9. Don’t swear, tell off-color jokes or say anything otherwise considered offensive during the interview.
