typical questions thats going to get me the job
125323
practice answering typical questions they may ask you.......like.\n1) describe a time you were involved in a conflict, and how did you deal with/resolve it.\n2) tell me about a time when you had a deadline which you realised you could not meet. What did you do?\n3) teall me about a time you were told to do something by a superior you did not agree with. what did you do? \n\nthe trend in this country is to ask 'situational' questions....to find out how you deal with certain situations.\n\nbut seriously, be yourself......smile...you'll be great!!!!

I don't know what job yer going for, but in ANY industry, do your homework on the company before you go to the interview- even if it's friggin McDonald's. Have something to talk about that you found out as an interesting fact online about their company. This will make you appear interested and intelligent and eager to know more about them, not just "Can I have a job?" Ask the interviewer, if it gets that comfortable, how do they like it there. And never, repeat NEVER, talk bad about any past or current employer. Sing their praises

For an employment position, use first person and explain how you handle the various requirements of the job. Good luck.

It's an interview, dress nice. Since they said informal, slacks and a nice blouse would be good.

You will be asked two types of questions:\n\nA) Informative: These questions are the "Tell me about yourself" variety - where you went to school, what you studied, etc.\n\nB) Behavioral: These questions will be in regards to how you react under certain situations (i.e., Tell me about a time when you...).  These questions are designed to see how you react under certain situations depending on the job you're applying for.  \n\nIn group interviews, it's really a "Do we like this person enough to hire them?" type of scene.  Just be yourself, don't be nervous, know something about the company as well as the position you're applying for, ask questions about the job and the company culture, and finally, send thank you notes to all those who interview you.\n\nBottom line: Your interview should tell the hiring managers three things - why are you interviewing with us (as opposed to The Gap), why should we hire you (over the hundreds of other applicants that we talked to today and all this week), and what makes you unique.\n\nGood luck....

do a little research on the company so if they ask questions you can answer them. dress respectably.maybe even, if you are nervous plan a speech and go over it or write it down on an index card. don't bring up salary for a bit. you want them to mostly know that you really want the job. rock thier socks! i hope you get the job. oh, and um, get some sleep the night before. people hire people who look respectable. this one guy had three guys who wanted a job. he hired the one who had shined thier shoes. if you respect yourself, others will too.

First you are gonna get an interview(make sure you have your resume with you, it makes you look prepared and responsible), then they are going to call you and tell you if you got the job or not, don't freak out about it, you'll do just fine!\nHere's a few tips for your interview:\n\n1)Make sure you are dressed like if you are gonna go to church or somewhere nice, that shows how much you care about the interview, and gives a good impression about yourself. Don't wear flip-flops, jeans, shirts, or very showy or sparkly make-up and cloth, makes you look trashy!\n2)Make sure your hair is not messed up, and that your nails are really clean (toes, and fingers)\n3)When you shake hands with your interviewer, give them a strong (not so strong you don't want to cut their circulation off!lol) shake, that makes you look confident and well-prepared.\n4)Make eye contact at all times- it lets the interviewer know that you are paying attention to the conversation.\n5)When they ask you a question, don't just answer the question, first answer the question and then explain why.\n6)Don't wear flip-flops or sandals, it's very informal and makes them think that you are dirty (especially if it's a job at a restaurant).\n7)Try to make conversation with the interviewer, makes them think that you like them, and that you are a social person.\n8)DO NOT interrupt the interviewer, it's very rude, and that lets the interviewer know that you don't wait for instruction to be given.\n9)When you enter the room and shake hands with the interviewer make sure you smile, it makes you look confident, and not nervious.\n10)When you live the interview make sure you say something like "thank you so much for your time, it was really nice meeting you!" with a smile on your face(it shows gratitude), and shake hands with him/her.\n\nI hope this helped you! Remember that no matter how big or small the job you are going to apply for is, you still have to follow this tips, it'll get you far!Please trust me with this \nansweres I took classes for this! Good Luck!!!=)\n\n*If you don't have a resume go to http://resume.monster.com/articles/fivepointers/\nor http://www.preseleccion.com/resume.htm\nand remember to keeep it short!

Dress appropriately for the job you are applying for - if it's in an office, wear something professional; if it is a fast-food restaurant, wear a nice skirt or nice khakis and a sweater.\n\nDon't wear a lot of jewelry.\n\nDon't wear perfume/cologne - it will probably offend the interviewer (he may not like perfumes, may have scent sensitivity, or may not like the scent you've chosen).\n\nWear a watch - a sign that you care about punctuality.\n\nBe pleasant and conversational, but still be yourself.  Ask the interviewer specific questions about the job - but, on the first interview, don't ask about salary, benefits, vacation time, smoke breaks, etc.\n\nGood luck!

Write a script about why you want to work for them.\nPractice it-\nthen break it down into main points.\nAfter that, just use a card that has the main points on it.\nThat way, if they cut you off you can pick up at a particular point for another question.

Taking your questions one at a time:\n\n1) It doesn't necessarily mean that other stores are not hiring, so you should definitely go door to door and ask them (nicely). What do you have to lose?\n\n2) Khaki pants and a button-down short should be perfectly acceptable for a sales position in a mall (whereas they wouldn't if you were applying for, say, a job in a law firm.)\n\n3) If you ask them if they are hiring, and they say yes, they will probably give you an application there. I'd suggest that you say thank you, and take it home with you to fill out carefully, although if it's simple enough you could also do it on the spot (but keep in mind that this is your first impression you're making, so it's probably much better to be neat, careful and thorough than it is to be fast.)\n\n4) It would probably be unusual for them to interview you on the spot, although it certainly could happen if they have an urgent need for staffers.\n\n5) Absolutely bring your resume with you (but again, make triply sure that it is neat, professional-looking, and most importantly that everything is spelled correctly). If you have a resume and most of the other applicants don't, you'll already be one step up on them.\n\nGood luck with your job search!

I would definitely use your experience with animals as a selling point. But also consider what kind of position they are hiring for... if it a caretaker/in charge of animal feeding and care, then this would be important. But if it is a cashier job or position dealing with stocking and supplies then you would probably want to mention any book keeping or money management skills that you have. Good Luck! Remember make eye contact, wear something professional that matches your eyes. Give a firm handshake and be very positive and confident. You will do well in any interview.

Since you're only 15 I would just wear a nice pair of pants (not jeans..preferablly black pants) and kitten heels, a nice collared shirt or something professional looking.  Don't wear anything revealing, tight, low cut, etc.  Have your nails manicured (or at least trimmed to one lenght...do not wear bright colors).  Have your hair pulled back from your face in a bun or pony tail.  This will make it less easy to tug at your hair if you're nervous.  Normally for job interviews I suggest bringing a resume in a nice neat folder..but since this is your first job, you won't need to do that.  I would bring a list of 3 references (not family members.) typed.  Just remember to be yourself, smile politely, have proper grammer, do NOT chew gum and answer the questions they ask your honestly.  goodluck.
