Questions to expect in a job interview:
•
    Tell me something about yourself.
•
    Why do you want to work for us? What do you look for in a
    job?
•
    Your resume suggests that you may be over-qualified or too
    experienced for this position. What's your opinion?
•
    In your current (last) position, what features do (did) you like
    the most? What features do (did) you like the least?
•
    What are your long-term career objectives?
•
    What is your ideal working environment like?
•
    Why should we hire you?
Writing a Cover Letter:
•
    Cover letters are always written specifically for each
    position and typically accompany a resume.


•
    The cover letter should support the resume, not
    simply repeat the same information that has already
    been mentioned.


•
    Take your time! Re-read what you have written and
    ask for more opinions.
For next week…
•
    You are moving abroad and need to find a job
    in an English-speaking company. Find a job ad
    that interests you and prepare a CV or resume
    and a cover letter to apply for that job. Be
    prepared to present your CV/resume and
    cover letter in class next week.
