Most of us have had an interview before, and it can be a stressful time. Even with the best laid-out resume’, it can still be hard to get a job. That is because some employers look beyond the credentials that are written on your resume’. It is not only about having a degree sometimes, but about the way in which you present yourself or the way you speak. If there is another person with the same skills as you, what sets you apart from them? What ensures you the job instead of them? That is what this article is about. It speaks about the different ways in which we influence our interviewer besides our credentials. This article will be helpful to me in the future, and hopefully to others as well.

Cognitive verbal statements is the “C” in the ABC’s. This is pretty self-explanatory, meaning that you tell the interviewer your knowledge in the job skills needed for the job. This is when you let your interviewer know if you are certified in a specific field or if you are knowledgeable in a pertinent area.

This experiment consisted of 20 interviewers which came from an oil company. They were a racially diverse group consisting of Caucasian, African American, and Hispanic. There were 16 men and 4 women with an average age of 35. They chose 19 applicants which included 9 males and 10 females that were Caucasian, African American, Hispanic, and Asian.

For the purpose of this interview, I interviewed Mrs. Ann Clare- School Psychologist and Mrs. Scott Nelson- School Principal.
“An applicant's handshake may be crucial at a job interview. But a personality test can tell a company what's behind that handshake” (Korn, 2012). When you think about a job interview you have gone on recently, do you think about what your strengths are? I can assure you that the people interviewing you are looking to see what you strengths are, whether it is in the form of asking you directly or in observing how you interact and answer the questions.

Recent advancements in technology offer the organizations of today and the future boundless opportunities for improvements in service delivery. Although experts agree that the alignment of technology and the overall business strategy is both necessary and imperative, no clear path to optimum alignment exists. Christopher Nuckles, a IT Director I interviewed demonstrated full awareness of this fact. he and the company’s CIO, Matt Carey, and the executive IT leaders and displayed optimism the “interconnected retail strategy” they have for the company will ensure that Home Depot remains the product authority for home improvement. As part of the technical team that developed, enhanced, or supported several of the technological systems at Home Depot, Nuckles believes that the key to a successful technological future is innovation. Nuckles recognizes that the biggest hurdle for the Home Depot technology is the emerging e-commerce and he adds that Home Depot is ready for the boom. He explains that plans are underway to optimize the Home Depot mobile application entirely and make it available on all platforms so that the company remains relevant as technology keeps advancing.

As a human resources manager, the primary task is to ensure that only the best candidates are called for interview. In essence, academic credentials are not enough to determine a candidate’s suitability. During the interview, it is important to ensure that the applicant has required skills to meet the firm’s objectives. For example, a given person might have the best academic qualifications as per the job’s description but lack other important aspects such as ability to work in the team and good communication skills. During the interview, such traits should be noted to disqualify applicants who cannot meet fundamental requirements of a team player.

Every time I turn on the television these days, I hear about the migrant crisis and the border security issues and I revert back to the time when I crossed the Canadian border. Being born as a Tibetan refugee, I have always felt like a nomad with no distinctive place to call it my own. I was fourteen years old when my family decided to immigrate to Canada and begin a new life. At that time, Canada was our hope for the gleaming future, our independence, and our new home. The emotional and mental ordeal that I faced during my migration has made me the strong and independent woman who I am today.

With the “Helping Interview,” all the knowledge and skills have been useful, realizing that I have not only made use of the majority of the micro skills useful in conducting the helping interview, but have also reflected on the stages of the helping interview at placement as well (Ivey, A.

For researchers who interested in studying some idea or concept, the demographic characteristic is one of the factors that researchers have to consider carefully. Participants are the main object of every experiment. To make participants feel confident, safe, and agree to do the researchers’ favors, there are certain things that have to be think of, especially the demographic characteristic (example: race, gender, ethnicity, or culture).
I have had many opportunities to be successful in the interviews that I conducted over this semester. Many factors were able to play a guiding role in the success. From talking to students, professionals and learning who I am myself I now feel confident in receiving and conducting an interview.
