Box Hoy Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Alright, I'm seriously nervous right now. I've got an interview in 2 hours and and then another one like probably right after. This is going to be my first interview for a job. First is at Subway and then the other is at Taco Bell. I just wanted to know, what employers look for, some common questions they ask, how to answer them, and basiclly what to look like. And does anybody have any good stories from when they were interviewed for a job. :Box: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinji172 Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 First drink some water to calm your nerves. also (if you can) id recomend getting there early as employers love reliable people (5-10 minuits should be enough). from the top of my head, you will probably be asked why you want the job, where you see yourselph in the future (in terms of carrer), what qualifications/experience you have and also if you have a crimonal record. Just be honest and try to stay calm. One more hint i can give is to ask if the job provides opportunity for promotion. It tells your employer that your thinking about the future Good luck^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godelsensei Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 When I sat through the interview for the job I'm doing at a summer camp towards the end of this summer, the interviewer asked... [b]1.[/b] We are on a trip to Niagara Falls. A kid jumps over the railing, into the falls. What do you do? [i]Nothing.[/i] [b]2.[/b] I say to go smack that kid over the head. Do you do it? [i]No.[/i] [b]3.[/b] Have you ever beaten your sister senseless? [i]No, but I did lock her inside a closet once.[/i] [i]That's okay. Sometimes I want to lock her inside a closet, too.[/i] (He knows my sister. >_>;;) And, of course, the most important question of all: [b]4.[/b] Can you make coffee? [i]No.[/i] [i]Then learn.[/i] A different sort of job, perhaps, but being receptive to the interviewer's sense of humor, even if it's hopelessly lame, is probably something to remember.

Lord Dante Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 One tip, answer questions like you were on the finals of mastermind. seriously though, just answer any questions they fire at you, and relax, they can't do anything worse than not hire you.
