Do You Interview The Interviewer? You Should!
Welcome Back,
How prepared are you during an interview? What kind of questions do you bring to the table? Typically people have “up their sleeve” an easy question that could get answered during the interview. If your question that you always ask in an interview is "how is the office culture here?" But the manager starts off by saying “here we’re a really close-knit family, we all really enjoy the presence of each other. The doctor treats us to a half-day each month, we have our staff meeting then we get to fill each other in about what's going on in our lives. We like the front and back office to be a great cohesive team. We’ve asked each of our staff members what they didn’t like about their previous offices and found that this half-day is a great start to the longevity of our staff members.”
So your question gets answered and now you’re thinking in your hear “Oh shit, that was my question to ask, not what am I suppose to ask.” Now you haven’t listened to anything the interviewer said in the last 20 seconds and you. Not really a great thing the happen, right? Well, I’m proposing to you, that you print off the fun sheet I have for you. Fill in the blanks, it will show that you’ve done your homework and that you really do want this job. It's not just any job that you will take!
Here are some of the questions that you should be asking in an interview.
What is your favorite part about coming to work here? / What makes you passionate about working here?
What percentage of the time will I be working on my own or with a team?
What traits are you looking for in an employee?
How often will I get a review? / Will I get feedback often, to know if I need to improve anything?
Is this a new position?
How long does your staff usually stay?
Is there anything that we haven’t talked about or that you haven’t asked me that we should talk about?
The fun sheet is detailed and it will show that you really do care and that you want to keep everything written and in your head and on paper. You know, sometimes the interviewing process takes a while, it could be weeks or months possibly. You may forget what they tell you, you won’t want to look like you don’t care, plus if you’re interviewing at multiple places, you for sure want to keep your facts straight! This fun sheet will help you to keep everything organized.
Comment below or send me an email at [email protected] and let me know what your story is, how you got to be where you’re at, where you lead your team. Always remember that you can do anything you try to do. Marie Forleo says it best with "Everything is figure-out-able."
Next Monday’s podcast is all about how you can overcome if someone is trying to keep you down. Use their negativity to fuel your fire! You can do anything for 1 minute, 5 minutes, 1 day, 1 week, keep pushing and you’ll make it to where you want to be.
