40 Interview Icebergs and How to Sail Around Them

Beschreibung

40 Interview Icebergs will help you to be more successful in interviews and get the job that you really want. So many people go for interviews and sail along merrily before steering straight into the iceberg that sinks their application there and then. Some icebergs are obvious; some less so. But isn't it nice to know what they are? You'll find 8 'Iceberg Zones' in this book: all are deadly. That's why Michael Heath has approached recruitment and HR professionals around the world and simply asked them the question, "What are the most common errors that someone might make that would stop you from hiring them?" This book lists the 40 most common reasons - the icebergs that all too often send a job application to the ocean floor. But to know that an iceberg is on the horizon is not enough. How do you get round it? That's why each section has several tips which will help you steer a course to the safety of your port or destination: the job you really want.

Autor

Michael Heath grew up in the West Midlands but has now lived in rural Suffolk for nearly six years. Google his name and you will see that it was as a business author that he had initially established his writing reputation, with invitations from the likes of HarperCollins and the Dragons' Den production team who were keen to employ his knack for making complex business concepts accessible.Having devoured the great Victorian novelists in his youth, he has always wanted to fashion a series of books with a strong sense of place and time. It was only when he moved to East Anglia that he found the geographical 'voice' that he was searching for and which is so apparent in the first of his 'Winifred Smy Mysteries', Killing Time in Kenton. That same commitment to authenticity continues in his second Winifred Smy book, 'The Devil and Miss Smy'. where events unfold against the backdrop of a small East Suffolk hamlet in the uncertain years that immediately precede the First World War. With a keen sense of the need for historical accuracy gained through extensive research, he incorporates real locations and local stories; even the surnames in his fiction are those that have emerged from his scouring of local churchyards and parish records, usually in the company of his very badly-behaved Lhasa Apso dog, Coco. A keen pianist, guitarist and composer, he regularly partners with other musicians online producing original songs under the band name 'The One Beneath'.He supports Coventry City Football Club but is keen to point out in his defence that it was because he was born there.
