Surprising Job Hunting tips

Posted by Robert on Apr 24, 2008

If there are somethings you thought you knew when you do job hunting, throw it out of the window and read some of these mind blowing secrets from the Brazen Careerist blog:

  • There’s one trick to all trick questions.“All trick questions, even the really scary psychological questions, are crafted so that you will give a negative answer.

The truth is that positive people are hired more often. And in an interview, people can show that they are that type of person by intentionally presenting their information in the most positive way.

  • A thank-you note is too late to express enthusiasm for the job. “A hiring manager’s mind is made up in the first twenty minutes of an interview, and often nothing can be done to change that.”

During this twenty minutes, most hiring managers are subconsciously screening for enthusiasm. Because people want coworkers who are excited about their job.
