Do’s & Don’ts

In job application process, you have to be aware about , “what to do” and “what not to do” to get selected in applied job. We have listed a few of them for you:

Z

Do ask at the end of the interview when the employer expects to make the hiring decision.

Q

Don’t ever have any errors (misspellings or typos) in your thank you letters.

R

Do be patient. The hiring process often takes longer than the employer expects.

R

Do be proactive and consider follow-up with your recruitment representative.  Follow-up can give you just the edge you need to get the job offer over others who interviewed for the position.

R

Do continue following-up, especially if the employer asks you to. Remember the adage about the squeaky wheel getting the oil. Just don’t go overboard and annoy or bother the employer.

Q

Don’t burn any bridges if you do not get a job offer. And do try and turn the situation into a positive by bringing the interviewer(s) into your network, possibly even asking them for referrals to other contacts

Q

Don’t place too much importance on one job or one interview; there will be other opportunities for you.

R

Do use other job offers as leverage in your follow-up — to get the offer you really want.

R

Do alert your references — if you have not done so already — that they may be getting a phone call from the employer.

R

Do obtain the correct titles and names of all the people who interviewed you. (Ideally, do get each person’s business card.)

R

Do use these follow-up techniques to continue to show your enthusiasm and desire for the position, but don’t make it seem as though you are desperate.

Q

Don’t stop job-hunting, even if you feel confident that you will get a job offer. Do continue to interview and attempt to find other opportunities.

R

Do follow-up with a telephone call to the recruitment representative within a week to ten days (or sooner, if the employer had a shorter timetable) to ask about the position. And do continue to build rapport and sell your strengths during the phone call.
