Unit 3, Part 4 [last part]: The Job Interview

So far in this unit, you've prepared:
> your resume (chronological, functional, 21st century)
> 2 cover letters (from jobs at saskjobs.ca)

The final part of this "Getting the Job You Want" (GTJYW) unit is learning how to succeed at the job interview.

FIRST...
...You'll need to prepare a powerpoint which you reflect on how to prepare for the job interview. Answer these important thoughts:
1. What are some do's and don'ts as you plan... your clothing/dress? makeup? perfume/cologne?
2. Why is eye contact important in a job interview?
3. What should you do if you don't know the answer to a question?
4. Find "any 5 common interview questions" and provide a well-worded reponse that you would share with your interviewer.

   Links to get you started: (or google "Common Job Interview Questions"):

      > SaskNetwork: Job Interview
      > Government of Canada: Preparing for a Job Interview
      > Common Job Interview Questions... how to answer them

SECOND...,
...Email your "5 questions" (but save the answers for the interview) to Mr.Hackl. He'll choose from your list and his 'master list of questions' and email your partner a script, so you'll be able to do the interview.

THIRD,
...You'll be video-ing you and a partner "at the job interview" (we will plan for this on Wednesday, April 15th, and Thursday, April 16th).
