bigsam360: It's a moving target. Hopefully you would have done your homework on the company and the position and know that they are looking for. If they are looking to hire say a Pilot for a Gulfstream. Q:Why should I hire you? A: I believe that my 15,000 combined hours of flying in which 10,000 was in Gulfstream Bleep coupled with the fact that I was a test pilot for Gulfstream factory for X years has prepared me well for this position. I was also the executive flight manager for the shah of timbuktu. Employers simple want the most qualified employee, that will fit in well with the existing crew and can hit the ground running. I know that's what I look for. 2 Likes |

PapaNnamdi: lov this thread, if it had been created earlier, i would have understood some ones and twos, The response could have been: Though I do not have experience on this job, but I am very motivated to learn more and improve the skills acquired in the University if I am employed. More so I am motivated by challenges and I have great problem-solving skills. To prove this, I have done so and so certifications which has proved my technical know-how regarding this position.

Lovely thread packed full with experience(s)... Mine was just a mind play. Most of these interviewers love messing with a nervous, desperate and broke dude. I walked into the chill room, middle aged lady with a much younger man(about my age). And the silence was loud. I could tell they were psyching me up. They didn't even offer me a sit so I jst stood there trying to make meaning of nothing. The young guy finally asked me to sit which I did. The next question was unexpected. 'How many people have you killed'? After what seemed like ages I was able to say something, anything. I told them its difficult to say exactly since killing may mean so many things. The other questions were relatively ok and non dramatic. It turned out the mean duo were just contracted to run the interview. 1 Like |
