Nine Steps to Acing a Job Interview

Nine Steps to Acing a Job Interview

by Penelope Trunk

A good way to think about the process of getting a job is that a resume gets you in the door, and an interview is where you close the deal.

Here are nine ways to ace an interview and get the job:

1. Tell good stories.

2. Understand the behavioral interview.

3. Ask questions at the beginning, not the end.

4. Stop stressing about your MySpace page.

6. Present a plan.

7. Manage your parents.

8. Play to stereotypes.

9. Practice. A lot.

A story I used to tell in interviews Heath says there are three different kinds of plots we can create about ourselves.

1. The challenge plot.

2. The creativity plot.

3. The connection plot.

Once you’ve practiced a bit, you can relish the moment someone says, “So, what do you do?” If you understand how to talk about yourself, this is an opening to connect in a meaningful way and make a lasting impression.

Cover Letter

reda Grant

The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation

Dear Ms. Grant:

How are you?

I am writing in response to your ad for a Graphic Presentation Assistant, posted on the jobs.collegerecruiter.com website July 1, 2007.

As you can see from my resume and portfolio, I have acquired quite a bit of experience with product graphics and presentation coordination, Marketing and Advertising.

I know that you also require someone with a BFA in Graphics in addition to the Photoshop, Illustrator and Microsoft application skills. Although my degree is in Industrial, rather than Graphic, Design, marketing and publish most of my roles in projects at school have finely tuned my graphic capabilities. I hope that you'll agree after viewing my portfolio images.

I would love to work with QUALITY; I have long been a fan of your forward thinking product development work. I feel that with your company I will be able to continue my professional growth, both as a graphic designer and a production specialist.

I look forward to hearing from you. I can be reached at this email address (raul_m555@hotmail.com ), or by telephone at 212-555-3825. I will try to follow up with you to make sure you've received everything you need.

With thanks,

Raúl Manzanilla
