Problem Getting an Interview?

Friday, July 3rd, 2009 @ 9:12 am | Interview Questions, Tips, Tools

Are you having a problem getting an interview? It may be that you are not selling yourself in your resume and cover letters in the way the employer wants to hear.

The key is for you to tune into the radio station they are listening to (WIIFM) which stands for What’s In It For Me. You need to be focused on the the key things (needs) that the employer is interested in having by the person who they are looking to fill this position. You need to convince the employer that that person is you.

The best way to do this is by using ROC Power phrases. ROC is Result Oriented Communication which is describing your most compelling accomplishment in a concise, descriptive way, that is memorable and impactful to the listener.

If you would like to learn how to do this I am partnering with another Career Coach and offering a 6 class tele-seminar series geared to accelerate your career success.

      Yes, geeting selected for an interview is half the job done in most of the cases… This means they are happy with your resume and now want to see your level of confidence and other traits.
