Avoiding interview blunders

D. Louis, To get more information on the interviewer, try using LinkedIn and look up the interviewer's name. By Jeff Cann on 2013 05 22

Avoiding interview blunders

I agree with everything except the getting more information on the interviewer. The only way to do that would be to call other people in the office and to me, that borders on the creepy/desperate. Paying close attention to how the interview begins and the questions they ask will give you enough information to adjust your style. Then asking the interviewer about their leadership and communication styles is a great way to determine your fit for the organization. By AJ on 2013 05 22

Leading by lying

Trina, thanks for the comment, I think you've got it right. Bill, I bet you got to hear some interesting stories. Side question: Do you think names like "Easy Green" were given to be psychologically "easier" sounding routes? By David Sneed on 2013 05 22

Avoiding interview blunders

Great article, Shawna. While it might feel like we tell interviewers these same (practical) bits of advice ad nauseum, it's amazing how often a candidate will ask the interviewer "So, what does your company do..?" and dress like they're headed to a Rockies game as soon as the interview is over. Thanks for providing the information in such a concise and entertaining way! By Lida Citroen on 2013 05 22
