Career Strategy for the New Age
Career Strategy and Interview Strategy
Students who graduate from today's universities, business schools and MBA programs have worked long and hard to develop themselves as the ideal candidates for progressive careers in business and technology. University curriculum in this market requires not only courses in strategic financial management and integrated business and marketing communications, but also seminars in career and personal development such as resume building, interview skills, and the construction of an individual career strategy. Business technology in the 21st century demands that job applicants prepare for the webcam interview as a component of their career training.
Mapping a career among the vast highways of technology, competition and outsourcing is not easy. Unlike the career paths chosen by the small percentage of college graduates during the 1940s and 50s, applic ants now must ‘fit’ themselves into the fast lanes of a company’s culture and technological purpose. Progressive job seekers know that real career success depends on a comprehensive individual plan that details specific professional goals and proven techniques for achieving them. Moreover, successful candidates must be able to convey their skills and their ‘fit’ into available business positions during the initial meeting with potential employers. This is where part two of the individual career plan begins….
A few years ago, potential hires were called ‘in’ to a human resources office for a face-to-face interview. Suits were cleaned, shirts were ironed, and shoes were shined. As business went global, the face-to-face became less prevalent so employers could cut their investments of time and overhead. The telephone interview became the most common method for conducting initial interviews; the limitations, however, of th e telephone interview were obvious and offered interviewers very little information beyond what had been submitted via resume and cover letter. Thanks to technological advances and inexpensive digital and web technology, the webcam interview has been adopted as the initial interview format of choice. In truth, the webcam interview is the least problematic method for both the interviewer and the applicant. Although the human resources representative can’t shake an applicant’s hand, he or she can observe the candidate’s demeanor, body language, energy and reactions to skill and experience questions. Serious job candidates need to be prepared to excel in this new and growing practice.
Experts in the field of human resources offer job seekers advice on preparing for and succeeding in a webcam interview: A webcam interview is not informal; a job candidate must look professional even if he or she will only be seen from the waist up. Having a copy of a resume and occasionally glancing at it is not taboo; reading from notes, however, is amateurish. Looking frequently at the webcam while speaking gives the interviewer the feeling of ‘eye contact’ and establishes a more personal interview. Experts suggest that job candidates try to relax, smile, and be natural.
Of course, all job applicants should go into an interview with knowledge of the available position and its requirements, information about the company and its policies, locations, benefits, etc. Applicants should also bring a list of questions about the available position and the company to the initial interview.
Graduates and job seekers have labored to become the ideal candidates for today jobs.
Career and personal development has become an important component in that labor, and business demands that successful applicants be prepared for the future of human resources: webcam technology.

Interview Do’s and Don’t’s
Article Title: Interview Do’s and Don’t’s

So, who do you like in the presidential primaries? No, don’t tell me. I don’t want to start something here. I do know that there’s an interesting horse race going on in both camps. So, if the presidential race is on your mind, I found a couple of great posts on Bulls Eye Resumes that take a little something from the candidates to help you with medical device sales rep, laboratory and clinical sales rep, or pharmaceutical sales rep interviews:
Interview Do’s From the Presidential Race: (a few of my favorites)
Bring your personality to the job interview. You can be engaging and friendly and yourself while answering interview questions without feeling like you have to have false cheer. The hiring manager is a person, after all, and will likely be as turned off by that as you would be.
Answer the specific question asked. Be prepared, but don’t have your answers so “canned” that you answer by rote and don’t seem engaged in this conversation. (For a laugh, see some really honest answers here…)
Own your failures. Don’t act like you don’t have any, because the interviewer knows better. Focus on what you learned from them.
Interview Don’ts From the Presidential Race: (again, some of my favorites)
Don’t make false claims about your past job performance. You will be found out. Recruiters, especially, will look up your references.
Don’t schedule your interview during a time when your energy is low. Are you a morning person, or are you more alert in the afternoons? You don’t want to walk into an interview looking like you need a nap.
Don’t use the same tired lines everyone else is using. Buzzwords, yes. You show that you’re informed on the latest developments in your industry. Using standard “interview speak” when answering won’t get you the positive attention you want.
These really are very informative posts, with even more information than what I’ve highlighted here. Definitely worth the read.
