To gain this depth of information and build momentum towards a phenomenal interview, they visit websites like Business.com, First Research, Hoovers, Jigsaw, and perhaps Linked In. Star candidates can expect to spend 60% of their time researching information and pouring over unbiased data. Secondly, without trepidation, they spend 20% of their efforts actually talking with current and/or past employees. No surprises here, this is how real players ferret out the unspoken/written around the culture.
Finally, star candidates understand compensation and DO NOT inquire about such during the interview process. Ever. Earnings potential can be obtained from websites like salary.com, wetfeet.com or vault.com. Furthermore, star candidates attract the conversation around compensation. Always. One final pre-interview tip; $10,000 is the magic number. Stars know that anything less than that generally does not sway a decision to accept or reject an interview. Got questions... email or call. Join me next week as I cover part 2/3 - the interview from the candidates’ perspective. It’s Monday - dig in - let’s keep it moving!
