TORONTO GIRL CHRONICLES

Like the day I was sitting beside the lady that was yapping away to a person that, I assume, had just left an interview. She particularly caught my attention with her resume/interview tips. She said that you can actually control your interview by writing a result oriented resume. Since this not the first time I’ve heard of this method, so I kept on listening. So what is a Result Oriented Resume? Well, when you list the tasks that you fulfill at a job, also write down the results. That way you will intrigue the interviewer into asking you how you accomplished those results. Then you can prepare your interview by showing how you used your superb skills to get things done.

As we’ve all heard it before(and if you haven’t, get with the program!)an interview is your opportunity to convince someone that you are the BEST. And not to sound like that Spice Girls’ song, but you gotta prove it. At the end of it all, you are at the interview to tell “them” what’s in it for them. So you see, you gotta listen. You always learn something good.
