Confidence matters alot. And HR people have lot many questions that test your confidence. So thatis why, it is always said that have a smile on face while answering thosequestions. Feel relax while answering; just imagine that you are speaking witha person who is eager to know about you. There are ample of HR questions whichare being put up in front of job seeker in different ways. Like above is one ofthe patent questions: tell me about your strength and weakness.

HR Questions

Weall know all strengths and weakness very well. When this question is asked somevague answer is given like this:

My strengths are:

· Sincerity

· Hardworking

· Punctual

· Co-operative

· Risk taking ability and so on.

My weaknesses are:

· Can’t adapt changes easily.

· Can’t work continuously

· Ability to dominate others

· Less patience

I am telling youseriously guys, such vague answers are given. Now tell me, which recruiter willfeel to hire you and for what he must hire you. According to above strengthslike sincerity, hardworking, etc; these are default qualities which areexpected by any employer. You don’t have to mention it. Recruiter is assumingthat you are having it and that is why today you are in front of him. So don’tever mention such vague strengths. While mentioning your weaknesses don’t do itall of sudden frankly. Recruiter is not your friend or relative that you arecommitting to him frankly. Disguise one of your strength as weakness. It meansthat you use one of your strength as weakness.

Now,did you get how you must not answer this question? I am providing you below theproper way and sample answer of how to answer this question. While answeringthis question, remember to relate your achievements with strengths.

Sample answer for answering strengths:

My innovativeness helped me publish twotechnical papers in National conference. My sincerity, dedication and hard workmade me have good consistent academic record. My ability to handle terrifyingsituations made me to handle my team leader position efficiently. (See here how you are relating yourachievements, some section of experience with strengths. Now, this is not theideal answer. But I have shown you the way of how to answer it. When you answerin this way, you prove that you possess those things because you are correlatingwith something that is already present in your resume.)

Sample answer for answering weaknesses:

If there is certain thing that is very tough,I may over work on it till I get the solution without keeping pace with others.(See here, what you have done is you have encapsulated you strength intoweakness. Your strength is that you can work very hard. But you kept the samething in front of recruiter in other way.)

Moreover, beforegoing to HR interview, you must sit silently and try to recognize yourstrengths and weaknesses wisely. Be prepared for such answers.

What is the question? Tell me something about yourself. So job seeker must concentrate on himself. Think yourself as product to be marketed and accordingly speak out.
Before going to HR interview identify major strengths within you so that you can speak them out.

Resume Writing Mistake

21. Criminal Record:

If you have hadany kind of complaints filed against you, or were a part of even a very minorcrime, never make the mistake of mentioning the same in your resume. It is goodto be honest, but only when you are face-to-face with the person. You get achance to justify yourself, and not let prejudices to be built up for you.

22. Prejudices:

Do not state anyracist comments, prejudices, harsh, or even favoring views for that matter, forany group, religion, organization, etc. This would put forth your image of aperson who cannot get along well with others.

23. Messy or Confusing format:

A resume notformatted correctly cannot be excused. With computer programs making formattingso simple, one cannot just let go the messy format of the resume. If you arenot good at it, you can always take someone’s help, but do not send such amessed up resume to the employer, and expect a call from him.

24. Low GPA’s:

GPA is not aquestion for experienced candidates. Candidates, who have recently passed out,and are looking for their first job, would be judged based on the GPA.Otherwise one does not need to mention the same in the resume. If you have lowGPA’s, try mentioning the Grade.

25. Sarcasm:

Sarcasm might begood while talking to friends or colleagues; however, it is not advisable whileusing the same in formal communication. If the recruiter does not understandyour sarcastic statement, you might end up creating a negative image ofyourself. Keep sarcasm and irony out from your resume and cover letter. I wouldadvise, keep it out from your interview as well.

Rejected

Now that you knowwhat should not go into a resume, we are sure that you would never go wrongwith your resume, and get the best job that you always deserved. Go ahead, andwrite an effective resume. Draft a resume that would force the employer tochase you, and not you chasing the employers.

Resume Mistake

Things to be excluded from your resume:

16. Health Issues:

You do not needto mention and health related issues in your resume. Some jobs require amedical clearance and only in those cases you need to speak about your health.In other cases, if you feel that you can do your job well, and your doctor alsogives you a clean chit, then your employer does not have any right to ask youabout the same.

17. Family Background:

Your father’svocation or your mother’s education will not affect your job. Your capabilitiesand skills will decide your career. Your father might be a billionaire, or hemight be a normal security guard, how does it affect your job? Thus, do notmention the same in your resume.

18. Boring words:

The employer, inalmost every resume reads – 'I am a dedicated and hard working employee.'Please think of something different. Using action verbs in your resume make itmore impressive.

19. Pessimistic opinions:

Your resumeshould in any way not reflect pessimism. If you do not have many positivepoints to include in your resume, do not mention the negative points. Try todilute the weaknesses, for example, if you are not good at leadership, mention 'Iam at my best when I work in groups.' This statement will highlight yourstrength and hide your weakness.

20. Blanket Statements:

These arestatements that the employer uses for analysis. Employers at times ask you toprovide your salary expectation. If you provide a fixed figure, it might takeaway the opportunity from you, because you do not know the extent to which thesalaries are negotiable in the organization. Thus, keep your options open, anddo not let such blanket statements create hurdles in your way.

Tips for Cracking Group Discussion

2011-11-21T00:00:00.001-08:00

Group discussion is one of the techniques used by the recruiters to judge the job seekers. Today, as per the market competition, if the recruiter has to choose amongst these 2 persons: A job seeker with average marks and good personality and a job seeker with good marks and average personality. So surely recruiter will choose the person with good personality. Today, having good personality has become essential due to rapid industrial growth. Good personality means good communication skills, ability to talk with people, ability to handle people efficiently and also good professional dressing sense. So during the initial screening process, recruiter judges the personality of job seeker by seeing his performance in group discussion. He observes each and every minute thing about the speaker, the way he speaks, the way he puts up his opinions, the way he criticizes others opinions. Group discussion is the good way to check whether the job seeker is good listener or not.

So here are some of the career guidelines to crack group discussion successfully:

One must possess knowledge about day to day life, what's happening in economic market, what is going in the social and political life. So one has to be good reader of newspaper and good listener of news.
Before group discussion starts, 5-10 minutes are given to think about the topic. So be clear about your opinion and be firm on that. Don't change your opinions on what others say. Write the keywords about the points you want to speak out.
Look at speaker and not the judge. First listen completely to speaker's opinion and then speak.
Project your voice properly. It must reflect inbuilt confidence amongst you.
Quality matters rather than loudness or quantity. Everyone is under wrong understanding that recruiter is impressed only when you speak out ample of content. It is not like that, even if you put up your strong point that's enough to win impression of recruiter. The way you put your point is important and not on how many points you put up.
Look into the eyes of speaker. It is sign of good concentration.

So group discussion can be cracked only by practice and knowledge update. Remember group discussion stage can be reached only if you have good strong professional resume, and such resumes can be made easily by referring to sample resumes on various category available online. Resume just pave path towards group discussion, a new opportunity. Also get more examples of a cover letter.

What is Video Resume

2011-09-08T04:47:00.000-07:00

In today’s technology era, everything is revolutionized. Like telephone is replaced by cell phones, cell phones by smart phones etc. Even the employer‘s requirements are changing.

That cover letter is snap shot of your personality that is what inspires to take you the job position mentioned, why employer must recruit you? All these brief aspects are mentioned in your cover letter. It can create recruiter’s interest within you. Then comes the resume, which can highlight all skills within you.

Video Resume

But as I have mentioned earlier, we are in technology era. Now most recruiters prefer video resume as complementary thing to ordinary resume. Video resume is short video in which you have to speak about your qualifications, strengths, skills you have acquired so far, etc. It means that recruiter after going through your video must land up to certain conclusion.
The craze of video resume is more in management based company wherein job seekers personality has to be judged rather than his/her skills. So in such cases, even a telephonic interview will not help because recruiter can only hear you. In video resume, he can observe you minute details. He can verify your skills whatever you have written on paper, because a person’s face, gestures, postures can speak a lot. He can observe the way you talk and then decide your communication skills. He can observe you dressing and decide your personality. He can keenly see your video and conclude the way you can present yourself and carry yourself.
The following guidelines must be considered while making a video resume:

Video must be short and meaningful. It must be for 3-4 minutes.
It must highlight your strengths.
Keep your video professional only. Don’t add any personal stuff into it.
Wear professional clothes.
Keep the background for video sober, calm and quiet.
Try to project your voice.
Speak clearly
Mention how you are useful to company.
Have cheerfulness while speaking, it must please the recruiter.
Don’t speak out irrelevant details.
Mention all the things about you that is your name, qualifications, etc very clearly.

Making a video resume is not sufficient. You might have question where to add it. You can simply add it to career networking sites like Career Builder, job monster, etc. Also, one can upload it to their email-id and provide links as and when required.
Also, remember that video resume can’t replace the traditional resumes you are writing. You must always have all these things, a perfect meaningful resume, cover letter for your resume and a short video resume if possible.
Video resume can just help the recruiter to find the truthiness in your resume. He can just verify your skills and personality.
