“I am always impressed with an applicant who has taken time to find out who will be interviewing them and has done some LinkedIn research to find out the interviewer’s designation in the company.” Melissa Rai Talent Acquisition & Relations Development Coordinator, Entersekt
“What really impresses me is a candidate’s knowledge of our company. When the candidate has researched beyond page 1 of Google, and knows more of the “lesser known” details of the company. Questions candidates ask that are about the company and personal questions directed at the interviewers always impress me as do more specific questions such as where the company is going. I am not impressed by salary and benefits questions.” Kim Kay Recruitment Officer, GetSmarter
“We are impressed by punctuality, professionalism and confidence.” Ben Raffray Professional Development Manager, Fasken Martineau
“When candidates can offer an opinion about the economy and how it affects the world and how it could impact on the company.” Rushda Kammies Recruitment Consultant, Cadiz Corporate Solutions
“Candidates should be focused and to the point in their responses. They should dress professionally and arrive at least ten minutes early for an interview with a copy of their CV in hand. They should have done their research on the company and should ask relevant biggerpicture questions when given a chance to do so.” Margien Matthews HR & Corporate Services Executive, Pharma Dynamics
