Interview Translation: What 4 Common Questions Really Mean Acing the interview isn’t just about having the perfect canned speeches. Yes, you need to show off your experience, talents, and personality—but before answering each question, you also have to figure out what the interviewer is actually asking you. Those seemingly innocuous questions, like “tell me about yourself” and “where do you see yourself in a few years?” aren’t just get-to-know-you conversation starters. So, before you start to share your life story—or recite the same answer you gave at the last interview—it’s important to figure out what the interviewer really wants to know. 1. Translation: Tell me why you’re the right fit for this job. The interviewer already has your resume and cover letter, so she’s not looking for a rundown of your employment history. So, while this is a good time to paint a broad picture of who you are, it’s most important that you include a couple of key facts that will sell you as the right candidate. 2. 3. Translation: Do you care about our work? 4.
Top 5 Questions You Must Ask in an Interview While most of your job interview will be employer-driven, at some point you’ll be asked whether you have any questions. This is your opportunity to drive the interview. It’s time explore whether the position meets your needs. The central purpose of this question is to find out what you will be doing each day. What action-items need immediate attention from the person who accepts this job? You should also try to gauge the time-pressure inherent in the role. All of these sub-questions give you a good idea of what your daily working life will be like and how well you’ll be able to meet the role requirements. Every organization evaluates people differently. Your interviewer may give an answer such as “XYZ Company reviews all employees on a quarterly basis. If you don’t get such a complete answer, ask a few more questions in an attempt to understand: Will your performance be measured at all? If you’re especially motivated to move up the career ladder, ask about opportunity for promotion.
We got 10 CEOs to tell us their one killer interview question for new hires Where do you see yourself in five years? Tell me about a time when you showed leadership. What is your biggest weakness? These are the standard questions that job candidates face during interviews. And by now, everyone also has standard answers. (“My biggest weakness? As you scale to the upper rungs of the corporate ladder, you are unlikely to field such hackneyed queries. A first-rate résumé won’t help you now. “Would you rather be respected or feared?” Michael Gregoire, CEO of CA Technologies, an IT management software company, admits that his favorite interview question is a bit Machiavellian. In theory, there is no right answer, but in practice the role they’re interviewing for determines which way the CEO leans. “Why are you here today?” It’s an incredibly open-ended question, but when he asks it in interviews, Gordon Wilson, CEO of Travelport, a UK-based, Nasdaq-listed software firm, is looking for a very specific answer. “What’s your biggest dream in life?” The wine list test
Real Librarians in real libraries remember Core Values of Librarianship School Librarians Are Real Librarians About fifteen years ago I attended a state library conference as a university library assistant. At the time I was in the process of getting my Master’s degree in Library and Information Science. I went to a session about career information and the presenter was rather pessimistic about the field of librarianship. Since I had decided to focus on school librarianship I mentioned that this field had many jobs in our state since school librarians were retiring in great numbers. The presenter’s response was “No, I mean real librarians.” If I were quick with words (and not so angry) I might have said “School librarians are the librarians who do it all. Core Values of Librarianship After the recent questions about credentials and degrees recently covered by both ALA and the KQ blog, I wanted to revisit some of the most important parts of my training.
