Personal and Professional Profiles

As you formulate your answers and respond to the questions that are put to you, be aware that your interviewer is analyzing each one for an insight into your personality and your character.

They are attempting to build a picture of what type of employee you would be and how you would fit into the organization.

When you talk about yourself, your attitude to work and your achievements you must communicate to the interviewer what your personal and professional attributes are:

You must be able to convey the following:

* Motivation: Take the opportunity to ask questions of your interviewer. This will convey enthusiasm and motivation, a thirst for knowledge coupled with a desire to get things done.
§ Energy and Drive: Someone who is prepared to put in the extra effort required to get the job done.
* Confidence: Display a confidence and poise in your interactions with individuals at all levels in the organization.
* Determination: Not to be confused with stubbornness. Convey a desire to conquer problems despite difficult situations.
* Attitude: Someone who is open and friendly but professional always, a team player.
* Reliable: Self-motivated with an ability to work independently with a minimum of supervision.
* Honesty and Integrity: Each company has it's own code of conduct. Display an ethical responsibility for all actions undertaken by you both positive and negative.
* Listening Skills: Be an active listener. Take time to listen, assimilate the information and respond.
* Analytical Skills: Ever more important, weigh up each problem and find a balanced solution.
* Dedication: Display pride in your work and the dedication to see each task through to completion in a timely manner.

The interview is your chance to let your prospective employer see what an asset you would be to the company. You are on stage for thirty minutes and in this length of time you have to present yourself as the candidate of choice.

It is a nerve-wracking process responding to each question but delivering a glib response that you have learned by heart will not help you to sell yourself.

You must paint a picture of your personality and character that will intrigue the interviewer and enable them to envisage you in the role within their company.

All the above are necessary characteristics if you are to be successful in today's dynamic climate.
