Interviews Going Nowhere Change This 1 Thing.
Interviews Going Nowzu siche Change This 1 Thing.Interviews Going Nowhere Change This 1 Thing.This is my problem I am getting calls and I am going on bewerbungsgesprchs, even 2nd interviews. But then there always seems to either be some kind of snag, theyve decided not to move forward with filling the position, theyve hired someone else, and of course there are the times I get ghosted.When I hear a candidate articulate their job search process and progress, I can usually pinpoint the breakdown. If youre getting calls, that generally indicates the resume is working (not the case though, if the calls dont actually match what you want but thats another post for another day). If youre interviewing multiple times, thats obviously a win.But what is happening thats causing the failure to land an actual offer? It could be that you just didnt ask for it. Lets map out some specific language you can use so that you can get out of the never-ending interview cycle, and land the job you really wa nt.You Asked Questions All Through The Interview Right?Right. You did. Of course you came prepared with your intelligent, well-researched questions. Not only did you ask the questions, but you actively listened to the answers, and tweaked your subsequent questions accordingly.So, take this questioning a step further.Make The AskAsk for the job. Its not too pushy, too forward, or too rude. This is key to the job search philosophy I share with the candidates I support you need to advocate for yourself at every stage.In sales, this is called, closing. When you end the interview with a close, that means you dont walk out wondering whats going to happen next. It also means theres less likelihood that youll get ghosted.Heres How To AskYou can use any combination or variation of the language belowI think I could make some real impact here, and that we could work well together. Have I given you all the information you need to offer me the job?Now that weve had the opportunity for this discu ssion, Im even more interested in this job. Is there anything preventing you from offering it to me?This conversation has been rather enlightening, and I am truly interested in the job. What is the next step for consideration? Ive enjoyed this interview and want to thank you for it. When will you be making a decision?It behooves you to make your ask right there on the spot in the interview. Know where you stand so that you can handle your job search accordingly from there forward.Also, before you leave the interview, if you didnt get the information already, ask for the interviewers business card or ask for his or her complete contact information. Youll need it to connect with the person on LinkedIn, and to follow up appropriately.I want you to see what real candidates did to turn their interviews into offers. They share their job search success stories in our free program, 5 Secret Job Search Hacks For The Age 50+ Job-Hunter. Follow the exact path candidates ages 55, 56, and 57 too k.
