Successful Job Hunters Interview the Interviewer, According to BH Careers International
Article Editor: Carly Zander
NEW YORK, NY - October 20, 2004 /Send2Press Newswire/ -- Successful job hunters always interview the interviewer, according to career experts at BH Careers International (www.bhcareers.com), a company that helps executives with job searches. The quality of the questions is an important factor for impressing the interviewer. Additionally, asking questions is crucial to determine if the available position is a match.
"It's a common misconception that employers are the only ones doing the interviewing," said Jerry Weinger, chairman of BH Careers. "Asking the right questions helps job hunters understand what the employer's needs are. That helps them target their own answers accordingly."
Asking appropriate questions helps candidates demonstrate competence, professionalism and enthusiasm. They also help build a rapport with the interviewer -- one of the most important goals of a job interview.
There are some questions that are off limits. Never be the first to inquire about salary and benefits.
Weinger offers this list of what to ask.
* Can you tell me more about the position?
* How important is this position to the organization?
* Why is this position open?
* What happened to the last person in this position?
* How long do most people stay in this position?
* Who will I be working with? Can you tell me something about them?
* How will my performance be evaluated?
* What do you see as the major challenges facing this company during the next five years?
* Assuming I do an excellent job, where do you see me in five years?
* Do I have the type of experience and qualifications you're looking for?
Since 1947, BH Careers International, has helped professionals and executives with job searches. The company has offices in the United States, Canada, England, Scotland and the Middle East.
