Spending a few extra dollars goes a long way when it comes to making a good first impression. With this in mind I recommend that you purchase a resume folder to place your resume in. It makes a good presentation and helps to keep your papers organized. If you notice in the video above I choose a paper stock and resume folder of similar color. This gives a professional presentation when you place it on the table during your interview. You may consider handing your resume in a folder to the interviewer. I am not suggesting that you do this with every interview, but if this is your dream job and you are meeting with the CEO or President of the organization, how much is it worth to you to be the candidate that this person remembers as polished, organized and the one who pays attention to detail? If your answer is more than $5.00 then go ahead and give the folder to the interviewer. The resume folder that I use when I go on interviews and the one in this video I purchased from Staples because they have good prices and high quality supplies. Remember, it may cost you a little more money than you were expecting to spend initially, but this is an investment in yourself, your future. I think you are worth it, don’t you?

The interview is your opportunity to discuss with your prospective employer why you alone are the best candidate for the available position. Your resume was the ticket that got you in the door.
It is a golden opportunity; remember there must have been something in the resume that caught their eye. What do you think that was? You should spend the time reflecting to determine exactly what it might be. Obtaining a position in your next dream job depends on it.
Once you narrow down why you believe they selected you for an interview practice what you will say. Having a list of potential questions and a prepared response for each will allow you to shine. What’s the big deal about an interview? It is your opportunity to provide an academy award winning performance to your prospective employer, and be asked to return as a finalist. Remember, the goal is to be asked back for a second interview and ultimately be offered the academy award (your next dream job).
