How to Wow an Interviewer

How to Wow an Interviewer It is going to take more than just showing up for the interview to get the job today. How many of you have heard about using a 30-60-90 Day Plan during the interview? It isnt just for sales. It can be by almost anyone. The plan does just what is suggests. It lays out your goals for the position in 30 day increments. How would you create that? It requires you doresearch. When and how would I present it? Here is an interview with Peggy McGee, The Medical Sales Recruiter, which quite nicely outlines how she has recommended clients use it. There are more suggestions on when to use it in Employment Digest.Summarized here are the basics: Use it during the interview to backup your answer to a question about how you see yourself in that position. If an obvious question isnt asked, use it after youve been asked about your past/relevant experience. If you dont quite have the exact skills, you could show your plan to outline how you would bridge the skills gap in the first 30 days. No obvious lead-in, create the opportunity and just reference the plan. Will it work for everyone, certainly not, no interviewing strategy will. However, the preparation that goes into creating this document will, at the very least,force most of the pre-interview research thatneeds to happen anyway.
