Lesson 4: What is your ideal job?

The ideal answer is to choose an element of your work tied to the position you are interviewing about which you are truly passionate. It should be something that naturally excites you, elevates your level of presentation and causes you to naturally show the body language that this is something you truly love doing (leaning forward in your chair, smiling while speaking, more animated speaking, etc.).

If you want to excite an interviewer, get them excited about your passion for your work. If you're having trouble identifying an area for which you are truly passionate, think about that story you brought home from work where you saved the day, where you did something that no one else was able to do, where you were the superstar.

This is your opportunity to shine as a superstar. However, be careful not to choose an area that is so limiting that it is a very small percentage (or perhaps no percentage at all) of the work for which you are interviewing. Also, try not to make the entirety of your ideal job focused on one minor element. For entry level, tie in a key aspect of your education or recent internship.

The best way to answer is to start with the phrase, "My ideal job would involve…" and then go on to talk about that element as a component of a larger job, rather than the job itself.

Lesson 3: How about 3:00 p.m.?

One of the rudest things you can do is make an appointment and not honor it. Whether you are late or simply don't show up, you are showing the other person that you don't care about his or her time. The value of time becomes more precious as we get busier in life, so when you schedule an appointment with anyone, you need to see it as a valuable commodity. 

Never intentionally waste that time or treat it without the respect it deserves. If you schedule an appointment, proper etiquette dictates that you keep it. Scheduling Before planning your appointments, look at your calendar and check for conflicts.

You are better off letting the receptionist know that you're busy than booking it and having to change it later. It doesn't matter what king of appointment you are booking – medical, dental, hairdresser, nails, or any type of consultation.

The person you are meeting with probably depends on kept appointments to earn a living. Conflicts Most professionals know that conflicts may arise at the last minute, and they'll do their best to reschedule you for a more convenient time.

Lesson 2: When´s the deadline for that homework?

If it is the content of subject matter learned, and the knowledge of a student that is measured when graded, why does it matter if an assignment was turned in late?

An answer could be because all the students in the class are receiving the same instruction and need to make progress together. If one of them falls behind, that holds up the rest of the class. Besides which learning to meet deadlines is good practice for meeting deadlines in real life.

There are a lot of deadlines in real life, too, not just in school. You shouldn't feel too bad if you miss the occasional deadline though. This happens to everyone sometimes.

Lesson 1: What are your plans for the future?

One of the questions typically asked during an interview is about your future goals. Employers want to be sure that you won't be moving on to another job right away. New hires are expensive to bring on board and expensive to train. If you leave in a hurry, they'll be right back at square one.

This question is also a good way for them to determine if your career goals are a good fit for the company. The most successful candidates are the ones whose ultimate aims align with those of the organization, even if they don't spend their entire career working for the same employer. (And let's face it, most don't.).

Finally, asking about your goals for the future is a way for the hiring manager to make sure that you have some – in other words, this question shows whether or not you have direction and some sort of plan. You don't need to wind up exactly where you're planning to be in five years, but you need to be pointed in the right direction.
