"I was impressed with Pam and Amy throughout the entire process, but one example comes to mind, specifically.  At the beginning of the interview process Pam had to make a case for me to the hiring manager because my experience was outside of what he typically looked for, but she thought that I would be a good fit for the company.  Once I spoke to the hiring manager we quickly moved on to the final round and I was eventually offered the position.   Pam had enough knowledge of the company and the managers to understand what they were looking for even more than they did.  From what I've seen from the initial training I believe she was correct, and the company is a good fit for my skill set and my personality.  Pam is at the top of my list of recruiters to which I'll refer my contacts when they're looking for new positions."
- Candidate
 
 
"Lisa is a consummate professional and always responsive to our needs. She learns about our company and recruits candidates based on the best match and fit with our firm. We find Lisa a pleasure to work with and have been very satisfied with the level of candidates and responsiveness from Lisa and The McHenry Group team. Thank you!"

- Candidate
 
 
" Great idea using the videoconference for the first interview. Overall, a very enjoyable process and I was able to stay up-to-date on where the process and decision was at all times. Pam and Amy are great to work with!!"
- Candidate
 
 
"Probably the best contact, communication, interview and prep of any interaction I've had with any recruiter to-date. The video interview was very comfortable, prefessional, and a real time saver. Thanks to Amy and Pam!"
- Candidate
 
 
"I found Lisa and Scott both to be of high caliber, high integrity, good listeners, easy to work with, and very effective at meeting our needs."

Successful Interview Hints

Since this is your career, you need to conduct research on the companies you are going to meet with. Today, that is very easy by accessing companies’ web page, researching their products, financial performance, and key clients.

However, don’t stop there!  Stay on the web and research their competitors to gain an impressive understanding of the market segment.  Remember, if you are committed to making a career change, be prepared to invest YOUR time and effort to be prepared!

At THE MCHENRY GROUP, successful interviews are our business. Following are a few suggestions for handling some of the key issues surrounding a successful interview. Time and experience have shown our consultants that these suggested interviewing preparations are the key to successful candidates being hired for successful positions.

Be early and while you sit in the reception area, get a feeling for the culture of the company.

  •   Always wear professional business attire, even if the company is business casual.

  •   If you are 50% ready for a haircut, get one!

  •   How do the shoes look?

  •   Do you like jewelry, perfume and cologne?
    Great, wear as much as you want, BUT NOT AT AN INTERVIEW!

  •     Be ready for the question,

“Tell me about yourself”

This is a typical warm up question as the interviewing manager is sizing you up.  This is not an opening for your verbal rendition of War and Peace!  Rather, try responding with,

“Where would you like me to start?”  

  • From your company research, prepare some intelligent questions to ask about the company. Stay away from asking any overly intrusive questions.
  •   Avoid salary and competition questions.  Your safest answer is,

“I am very impressed with your organization and hope you think at this juncture I may be a good fit.  I am confident that if our discussions progress to the offer point, you will provide a competitive offer.  For your information my last two years W-2 were $XX and my current salary is $XX.”

  • Closing is the next step.  To our amazement many candidates, for whatever reason, fail to execute this vital step of the interviewing process!  Here is our suggestion:

“Mr./Ms. Hiring Manager, I am very interested in this opportunity and hope we can continue our discussions.  Are there any questions or concerns you may have that would prevent our discussions from continuing?"

(Many times there are some inadvertent misconceptions that occur that will prevent a next step if not clarified!)

“Great, does that mean that I have your support to proceed to the next step?  Super!  I have my calendar handy, perhaps we could pencil in a date for that next meeting.”

  •   Finally, following the meeting, it is critical that you phone your search consultant at THE MCHENRY GROUP within two hours of your meeting.  Most of our clients will be contacting us to solicit feedback on how the candidate thought the interview went, and if we do not have your feedback prior to that conversation, you have given the client a negative signal about your interest or follow-up skills, or both!
