Workplace Bible: Your Future Employer Wants To Know Three Things.

1. this is what I have.

You will notice, "this is what I have", not "this is what I understand".

Future employers do not care what you know.

In fact, what you know almost has nothing to do with future employers.

Most job seekers make mistakes when expressing information in this area.

Have

It doesn't mean you should be employed.

You may think that having a degree, qualification certificate or years of experience is enough for you to get a job.

Others believe that their urgent need for work will give future employers compassion and give their jobs to them.

Job seekers often omit their future.

What kind of value is there? This is an important reason why many people find it difficult to find a job.

2. this is what I will do for you.

What really matters is what you can do for your future employer.

This information shows that your enthusiasm for a job can be described in many ways: when you meet with future employers, when you are talking on the phone, in a well prepared cover letter or in your resume.

It is very important to remain positive in these interactions.

Leave your pain and frustrations in the job search process to other audiences. Do not talk to future employers or even bring them into the interview room.

Hiring managers tend to avoid those who complain about hard work.

Many candidates have experienced job hardships, but they only show positive in interviews.

A positive attitude is not only contagious, but also makes others want to work with you.

Even if you are afraid or nervous, be positive.

If you are not positive, why should your employer hire you? Of course, it is natural to be nervous during an interview. You have the right attitude and tension does not matter.

Worst of all, you didn't get the job.

Even if they don't hire you, you have to write a thank-you letter and send you good wishes.

This can convey your confidence. Next time there are job vacancies, they will probably think of you.

3. this is what I want you to do for me.

In the interview, be sure to let the interviewer know that you are interested in the job.

Remember to ask some questions about your job and ask about the future.

Do not ask about the number of subsidies and benefits, let the interviewer take the initiative to talk about these topics.

Interviewers often ask applicants how much they require.

Applicants often make mistakes in this step.

When answering such questions, many candidates will say they don't know or guess a too high or too low number.

They mistakenly believe that as long as they say that the salary will be accepted, the chances of getting the job will be greater than that of other candidates.

Some candidates believe that their difficulties in life (such as repayment of loans and child care) will win the sympathy of future employers and eventually help them get jobs.

In fact, complaining always brings negative effects, especially when you are willing to accept a very low salary. This will make future employers think you may not be competent for the job.

Another pitfall is the demanding salary, which will encourage future employers to hire less expensive people.

Asking too much or too low is a sign of inadequate preparation before the interview.

Before the interview, you should study the recruitment and vacancy positions, so that you can have realistic expectations for the salary of your job.

Overall, in the above information, prospective employers are most interested in what you can do for them.

They have read your resume and have a general understanding of you.

They don't really care about your background unless your background can bring them profits.

Employers are selfish. They only care about their own interests.

They don't really care about your interests, your feelings, or your financial situation.

What they care about is how you help them achieve their goals.

So you can also simplify the interview and refine your performance in the interview into a piece of information: what can you give future employers?
