Job Interview Tomorrow!!!!!
« on: July 22, 2013, 11:09:23 PM »
After six months of applying for jobs in Sydney and not getting an interview I finally gave up applying. This was one of the catalysts for us moving to Orange.

I decided to study instead, well that isn't turning out as well as I had hoped so I applied for an IT Manager role in Bathurst and I got an interview!!!!!

Here's hoping. I need to get out of this house and get back into the real world, I am going even crazier.

Find out the name of the person you'll be seeing, find some really good dirt on him or her and you'll have the job.

Blackmail is a nasty word, but hey, if it works.....  ;D

If there is a female on the panel they like to be called 'Toots' apparently.

Good luck!

Read their website thoroughly, understand their business and what their priorities are for the future. Try an come up with some ideas where IT can help meet their priorities. Have a 30, 60, 90 day plan.

Yep, have read their annual report and strategic plan. It seems as though IT plays a large part in what they do, just don't know where they are IT wise so have to tread carefully.

Good luck.
I know the feeling.
I was unemployed for (only) 7 weeks and had 3 interviews.
Now I am working again.

Good Luck.  I'm going through the same process myself with two interviews in two days.  It now looks like it will be my decision not theirs.......... ???  Going from no job to choosing between jobs is not as nice as it seems.

Well its about 1.30 pm  1/2 way through the interview . All the heads are bobing up & down , in agreement , the MD has excused himself to tidy out his desk . Nerds are trembling at their keyboards as the New Bloke finishes his presentation on the New direction they are about to take . All he has to do is say Yes to their most generous offer ,, everybody holds their breath .

 More to follow  >:D

Make sure ya tells allthe details, how many interviewers. How long etc..

Then the job itself, how big will your staff be, or the team. How many ppl the team support.. Etc etc..

I used to do first level and pc support at a few different locations..
