|
 |
Fuck. I am pretty scared. Finally... finally they invited me for a recruitment talk over a vacancy I've been applying to for 2 years now. It is a process engineer job. Very good and well paid job. I am now a logistics guy in the company and the process engineer is like 3 levels up from me.
It is a company that produces plastic cards with modules in them. Like gsm cards, pay cards and id's. So it's all about machines, production and cards personalization + security
I know it doesn't sound like much but it's a big production company, so they require all the knowledge about yield and productivity tools etc.
Any ideas how to prepare ? I've never been on such a talk before. And I guess it will be all in english as my new boss is foreign guy

Scout. Prepare. Be yourself. Don't sell yourself short. No job too big no job too small. If you don't get it it's not the end of the world. Calm your nerves before. Have a shot. Always helps me. It doesn't really help it's just a superstition. Be the person they want. Dress for they job. Be honest. Don't be greedy. Greed comes later.

Depends on the company, but if you were coming in for a chat in our company, rehearsing your answers is the last thing to do. That makes you come off as a machine that needs the job, rather than a person who wants the job. We've turned down people who on paper were bloody geniuses, but in reality had no passion for what they were doing at all. It was about being the best and making more money for them.
My advice? Be yourself. Show that you want the job, show that you're eager to learn, to put in the effort to get + keep the job.

This. It's really important to know some stuff about the company you are trying to work with.
Also think about a few intelligent questions you might have for them if ever they ask you if you have questions. Its always important to show interest, but first you need to know what the company is all about before you think of questions you want to ask.
"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

^^ best advice..
This was how I rolled at B.O.S.C.H in a engineering/tooling environment for high powered car parts.
Be confident with yourself and go with the flow.

Read up on the most common asked questions and think about an answer, don't memorize it, just prepare. There are certain stupid questions like "Where do you see yourself in 5/10 years?" so just prepare for those, the others, questions you don't expect, just think of an answer instead of talking out of your ass. Don't worry that much if you're nervous, this interview is just an obstacle you must overcome, just have faith in yourself and think positively.

And if I find myself with a question/task, which I just don't know how do resolve/answer... how to behave to minimalize losses ? I can't just say "I don't know" right ?  |
What else is there to say if you don't know?!
