The Ten Commandments for Job-Interviewing

With these tips, your chances of finding a job are greatly increased

I. Go after a small organization with 25 or fewer employees. If you cannot find a job like this try and look for organizations with 50 or fewer employees. The smaller the organization the better.

II. Hunt for places to interview using eighty friends and acquaintances. Make sure you know what your looking for so you can tell them exactly what your looking for

III. Once you have found a place you are interested in, you need to find out who has the power to hire you. Then you need to find people who know you and know the person hiring so you can get an introduction.

IV. Do lots of research on an organization before you go there.

V. Prepare for the interview with your own agenda. Have your own questions and curiosities about whether the job fits you.

VI. If you initiate the appointment, ask for nineteen minutes of their time; and keep to your word strictly.

VII. Only talk for 20 seconds to 2 minutes when answering their questions.

IX. At the end of the interview, ask for the job.

X. Always write a thank-you, not the same evening as the interview.
