Hey there.
Years ago while doing some volunteering at my old primary school, I met a recent B.Ed grad who was doing supply teaching there. We talked a little about her job prospects and interviews, and she told me that there were around ten key words that one had to hit during an interview in order to really catch the interviewer's attention.
I haven't the foggiest recollection of what those words were, but I imagine they included examples like: self-starter, team-player...
I may be having an interview in the coming month for a teaching position back home, so I was wondering what some of you thought were the key words that I need to emphasize, if and when it happens.
Cheers,
TMT. |

if i am understanding the situation correctly, she is referring to common advice given to interviewers, not interviewees. the advice is horrible both ways, so i'm sure they repeat and if you look through several, you'll find it. many large companies, especially fast food places that have high manager turnover, give this kind of information generated from the HR department. it's very standardized, if i remember, and extremely corny. |
