RE: [PLUG] [OT] Anyone else interested in a job search group?
|
I would be willing to coordinate some stuff and try to get some mentor types
to volunteer some time too to do some mock interviews.
Just off the top of my head it could work like this:
PREP
:-| Get like 4 to 10 people?
:-| Each will choose the job they want / company they want to work for
:-| Each will polish resume / vita (sp?) / cover letters / etc. for this
position
:-| Others will be assigned to do some research in order to play the roles
of interviewers
:-| This will take maybe two or three weeks
Interviews
:-| We all get together, in suits or whatever is appropriate, and do
video-taped panel interviews
:-| As a thoughtful, serious interviewer / trainer you can really benefit
the interviewee
:-| As an interviewee in a mock situation you can make mistakes in a safer
place which wont lose chance at a job, and really see what areas need
improvement
:-| Video is great for seeing your own presentation, mannerisms, etc.
Possible goals
:-| Keep it non-judgmental
:-| Constructive critism (sp!)
:-| For interviewees: work on telling success stories; work on controlling
the interview; work on successfully selling yourself
