The career field I
am currently in school for and am striving to enter is the medical management
field of health/hospital administration. In this field the types of interviews
that would be conducted are most likely to be stress interviews and panel interviews.
For these two types of interviews there are numerous interviewing skills that
would increase my likeliness for success into that field. First having an
extremely detailed and carefully tailored résumé is key. A semi-thorough
research into the history, culture, values, and mission of the company is
recommended and might even be inquired about during the interview. Another way
to increase my preparation for an upcoming interview would be to review,
pre-script, and practice personal responses to key common interview questions.
In terms of appearance, dressing appropriately for the interview as well as
cleaning up my online identity is key to improving my image of what kind of a
person I am. A list of memorized questions to ask the interviewer is good thing
to have prepared beforehand as well. Although I have not ever experienced a
real interview for a legitimate job, I have experienced a few mock interviews.
In my opinion, based on my limited experiences of interviewing, I believe that
the attitude and mood of both the employer and interviewee is crucial to
determining the atmosphere of the interview as a whole.
Along with that in order to have an efficient and “successful” interview, both the employer and the interviewer should be thoroughly prepared for as much as they possibly can. All these skills are part of what sets apart interviews from conversations. Conversations are more of a casual talking amongst two or more persons, where there are not many hard or fast rules outside of moral and cultural boundaries. Whereas in an interview the relationship between an employer and the interviewee is strictly professional yet cordial. Questions in an interview are detailed and specific and call for intelligent and descriptive answers by the respondent. Questions from both parties must be in a non-interrogating manner and seem neutral in emotion. Although interviews usually take place in a professional setting (like a work space or office), interviews can also take place on the spot at job-fairs, over the phone, via video conference and even over email.
