You want the opportunity. You want the chance to get your foot in the door. Once you are employed, the superiority of your efforts will quickly become self-evident. But, first, you have to get in the door.
Arrive for your interview on time and appropriately dressed. Act friendly, open and confident. No crossed arms or twitching or staring into space. Leave the ego and name dropping behind. The interviewer is considering how you can benefit the company and not vice versa.
Prior to the interview, show some initiative by having researched the company. Let your one page resume speak to your qualifications. Don’t ask too many questions about salary and benefits. Rather, speak in terms of your willingness to help the company achieve its objectives.
Let it be clear that you want the job and the opportunity to perform beyond expectations. Be proud of the fact that you are a fast learner and a hard worker. Without bragging, you can appear competent and enthusiastic.
As a Master of Success, you are an extraordinary worker and it will be the fortunate company that hires you. While your peers may be content with any job at any company, you should be selective. Do the research and be sure that you are accepting employment with a reputable company offering a quality product or service. Find the company within your industry that exemplifies high standards where management appreciates their employees and customers.
