In some ways the employment interview is like a persuasive speech because the applicant seeks to persuade the employer to employ him or her.Several suggestions might prove helpful to the applicant as preparation is made for the actual interview.(1) _____________________________________________.First, the applicant should know what kind of job he wants and how that job relates to his career objective.It is important that the applicant should be able to state the reasons for wishing to work for a particular company.(2) _______________________________________________.Relevant information for the applicant to locate includes such items as the location
of the home and regional offices,the financial status of the company,plans for expansion, and company philosophy.Information about most major corporations is available in reference books and periodicals.After gathering information concerning the company,the applicant is ready for the interview.
The interviewer’s first impression comes from the interviewee’s appearance.
(3) _________________________________________________________.For women a conservative,tailored suit or dress is appropriate.Both men and women should have neat,conservative length of hair.Although hairstyle and dress are matters of personal taste,many personnel directors form initial impressions from these characteristics.For example, one recent college graduate,who felt himself qualified,interviewed for a public relations job.However, the personnel manager considered this young man’s long hair,casual dress, and overly casual manner unsuited for this particular position.
