2nd Interviews & 1st Interviews by: Michael R. Neece, CEO, Interview Mastery.
2nd Interviews with Some, 1st Interviews with Others First and second interviews can be quite different. Interviewers meeting you for the 2nd time have different expectations and they're more comfortable with you. They expect that you'll be more informed about their company and express targeted enthusiasm for the position. The questions you ask 2nd time interviewers are focused on the company, industry trends, market drivers, key position deliverables, and competition.
During your 2nd visit, you'll meet new interviewers for the first time. These interviewers are really 1st time interviewers and they'll conduct the interview like a 1st time meeting. The difference is they've heard good things about you and expect you're a strong candidate. But they'll still have to be convinced. With 1st time interviewers, conduct yourself like it's your 1st interview because this is your 1st interview with these evaluators.
Your Questions for 1st and 2nd Interviews During the 1st interview, interviewer questioning focused on the position and your qualifications. You ask questions about the key position requirements and present your experience.

Interview Success Story, Connecting Experience From: Michael L. , Sr. Accountant & CPA candidate To: Michael Neece, CEO-Interview Mastery
I wanted to personally thank you for your excellent online Interview Mastery tool. Because of your advice, I landed a fantastic job with a software company after several months of no success. The best advice was in the "benefit" section where you advised connecting my experience with how that experience will benefit the company. Before using Interview Mastery I would explain my experience without relating it to a company benefit, and I would get a response like, "That's nice." However, when I connected my experience with the benefits, the response I got from interviewers was 10 times more positive. Thanks again for your online program. You're a life-saver! Best regards, - Michael L. |
