Job Interview Tips from an Unorthodox Interviewer
By Ladyjwanderlust on June 04, 2012
Before your next interview--and before you go into a Googling frenzy--take a look my Unorthdox Interviewer's tips. My goal is to make you feel more confident and poised, which is often what the interviewer is really looking for. They already read your resume, now show off your personality.
There was a point in time in my former life where I spent a large chunk of time interviewing people. I interviewed people for internships, freelance, contract and contract-to-hire positions. The departments I was trying to fill ranged from marketing, sales, graphic design, creative catch-all and personal assistant (Hang in their, personal assistants. I respect the hustle.)
|Nancy is on hunt for job-interview tips, too.
The problem with this former-life responsibility was I had no idea what the hell I was doing. (I'm not Fortune 100 quality, but I could employ a start-up, or non-profit in my sleep.) I had a writing degree, with no previous knowledge of Human Resources. But, I know how to talk to people, make them feel comfortable enough to confide in me and how ask important questions. So, I had to learn on my own.
I literally googled "How to Interview" and "Interview Questions"; covertly soaked up as much as I could from professionals and tried to remember my journalism training when it came to asking thoughtful questions and reading body languages. I got better, eventually. Below are my tips for you.
Pretend You Don't Need This: I cannot stress enough how much a sense of calmness can be conveyed as confidence. And confidence, in addition to basic job requirements, is what makes you stand out. Confidence shows you can handle your shit--and whatever kind of shit might arise in the office. No one likes a crybaby. They want a problem solver.
Think of the last time you were anxious. Rapid heartbeat? Extremities slightly shake? Words and recollections float around your head like a jumbled mess? Yeah, that's what you want to avoid. Because when they ask you a stock question like "Where do you see yourself in five years," your answer should seem sincere, as if you took a second to ponder the question.
- Even if you are lying, repeat the words "No big deal. I don't need this" over and over again. Fake it till you made it; position affirmations can work. That does not mean you don't want this job--it just means that if you don't get it, you'll live. And you will. God forbid you don't get one particular job does not mean it's game over. Sometimes getting a "no" makes you hungry and shakes the icy chill of rejection off. Move along.
That being said, confidence is not cockiness. Do not go so far as to convey an attitude that the interviewer is lucky to be graced with your presence. You should be gracious--but you are secure in who you are, what you bring to the table and think you would make a great addition to the team. Think of it as the writing/theater technique of showing vs. telling.
Show them you are intelligent, confident, experienced and well spoken by the way you sit across the table, making eye contact, giving thoughtful answers and providing relative information when asked about prior experience or examples. Don't tell the person, "Yes, I'm a excellent communicator and planner. I didn't bring any samples, but you can just take my word on it." The only way I can see this attitude as a plus is if they are hiring for Pharmaceutical sales and looking for a psychopath (hehe).
So, remember, you don't need this. I understand that your funds are running low--I've been there-- but for the 20-30 minutes you are interviewing, lie. I promise, you will be a better version of yourself. You will be calmer, more confident and better at conversation.
Body Language is Important. Practice It: It works for the FBI and many hiring managers (and most people) pick up on body cues. Here's a couple of body language cues to practice, so when you are in the middle of the interview you can exude your calm, confident, capable self:
- Lean back in your chair. Too many people (myself included, at times) get worked up, or nervous to the point where they hunch over the table in front of them. Sometimes it's a security measure as feeling the hard wood surface against your stomach makes you feel less exposed. Other times it might be because your interviewer has learned to sit back in his/her chair, therefore asserting dominance, and you learn forward to be closer to the conversation. Lean back. Feel the hard wood surface against your back. This subtle cue let's them know you are at ease. You will be your charming yourself without letting on that he/she intimidates you.
- Make eye contact. Let me be more specific: Make contact at the start and finish of each answer. It's ok to let your eyes wander a little bit, especially if you are detailing an experience. If you need more specific, try making eye contact every 10-15 seconds. They might not always be staring into your eyes, but they will notice that you are looking their way. More importantly, you do not want to look like a serial killer with a dead-on gaze the whole time. But, meet their gaze when you begin to answer their questions to show respect and that you are involved in the conversation. Then, end your answer by looking at them, to show confidence in your answer and help them know when you're done.
- Act like your hands weigh 50 lbs each. No, don't be a robot. But don't wave them manically when you speak. And don't flip your hair or display other nervous twitches. Or tap them on your portfolio. Find two-three places for your hands after the handshake--your lap, the table in front of you, one hand placed on your open portfolio/samples/resume, etc. When you move your hands, return them to a designated area. You have a comfortable place to land and you will look poised and calm.
- Slow your speech. It is hard to ramble when you talk purposely. Also, you tend to enunicate better, maybe because you're focused on the sound of your own voice. You're gently forcing the other person to listen to you, as by not talking a mile a minute and since there are fewer words, they carry more value. Take a two second pause to formulate a response--even if you have your answers prepared--this will make you look as though you were actually listening to the interviewer instead of formulating your response in your head as they spoke. No one likes the feeling like they aren't being heard.
- Facial cues. As hard as it can be not to wince when an out-of-left-field question pops up, don't show it. Poker face, people. Practice this in the mirror. Have someone interview you and ask outlandish questions. Get used to hearing something uncomfortable and not responding accordingly. Remember to smile. Don't purse your lips together or squint your eyes. Slightly nod at times during speech. Look to the right when asked a questions that requires a thoughtful response (Eye Cues Here). Don't be a deer caught in the headlights. You are in control.
Come with 5-6 questions. Research the company beforehand and come up with at least 5-6 questions about it. Think a little further than, "Do you have Casual Friday?" Ask they plan on going nationwide, or international. Ask if there is travel involved for the position. Ask if there are plans to incorporate a blog, additional client market, etc. Ask what the interviewer likes about working there--it gives them a chance to talk about him/herself and everyone likes that! (Note: I pull this question out if the person is from the department I'm interviewing for, or comes off as friendly. Use discretion.) Show that you came prepared. I say 5-6 questions because some will be answered during the interview.
Dress professional, even a little boring. There's no real peacocking at an interview. (The only caveat I can think of is in the fashion industry.) It can even hurt you--interviewers are human, if you get a petty or inappropriate interviewer, your look could adversely affect your ability to be taken seriously. Once employed you can exercise your stylish muscle and see what fits into the dress code. Dress professional, as in a suit, blazer and dress pants/ dress skirt. I don't recommend wearing a business-appropriate dress (great for meetings, but came come off as not appropriate).
This is not to say you won't look attractive and powerful. You are just doing it in a formal way.
- Jewelry to a minimum and probably kept to basic metals with small embellishments
- Black or mono-tone pumps/flats (I stick with pumps)
- Blouse under your buttoned jacket--use color if you wish, just not crazy patterns or too bold
- Makeup. Wear some. Not wearing any makeup can actually be distracting. Just some mascara, chapstick and blush should do the trick if makeup is not your normal routine. No fake eyelashes
- Polished hair. I mean not frizzy. Straighten or curl it. Or, put it up in a bun. Save the side braids or updos for your free time or once you see the culture of your office
- Suit / blazer combinations that fit your body (a well-fitting suit can be sexy, don't knock it)
- Nail polish: clear, light pink, nude, red (not a fan, but accepted) muted tones of other shades
Bring a portfolio. Fill it with multiple copies of your resume, writing samples, projects, references, etc. You should have samples of anything you want to talk about or refer to. And when you start speaking about it, open up your portfolio and hand the interviewer his/her own copy. (This was one subtle indicator of an organized, competent interviewee-- they always ended up being great workers, who worked well on their individual projects and took the lead on group projects. )Also, feel free to open your handy portfolio and take notes as the interviewer will inevitably ramble on about the company's history and their own role. Look engaged.
I own this one. My mom bought it for me when I graduated college. Thanks, mom. (I know you're reading this, that's why I never write about sex.)
Asking salary information at Interview One: Capricorn thinks this is a must and does it. He also believes this is something that will set you apart from the entry-levels as people making lateral moves or advancements will of course need to know salary information as they need to gauge whether this job opportunity is worth their time. Knowing you own worth is the take away here.
I still tend to shy away from asking. It's probably something I need to work on, as it does sound assertive. I never disregarded an interviewee for asking. Follow Capricorn on this one.
In my time as an interviewer (and now interviewee) this is what I learned. I considered people who displayed the above qualities more seriously. Be the best version of yourself you can-- don't morph into a superhero at an interview; you will most likely be found out.
Good Night and Good Luck,
Lady J

Learning Leadership at Gettysburg Battlefield
On September 21, Lebanon Valley College Student Government members, led by Dr. Steven O'Day, had the opportunity to participate in the "In the Footsteps of Leaders" leadership program in Gettysburg. Taking place on the Gettysburg Battlefield itself, the program incorporated leadership lessons into an interactive tour and retelling of the three-day battle.
Throughout the experience, the students recognized the value that the Battle of Gettysburg has in American history and used the happenings on the battleground as a model for modern, team-building applications. The students used the consequences from the soldiers' actions and decisions to engage in discussions about effective communication, adaptability, and leadership styles.
The program went beyond group discussions and battlefield stories in order to actively involve the students and bring the battlefield to life. During one part, students were able to recreate a cannon firing, timing themselves to compare their abilities with the skills required of actual soldiers. At other times, students were trekking through the woods, climbing Little Round Top, and reenacting Pickett's Charge the way the Confederate Armies had done. One student said, "[The program] was engaging and one of the best experiences I have been a part of!"
Although the program only lasted one day, Student Government members plan to integrate the lessons they learned into their meetings and to create personal goals to accomplish over the course of the year. They hope to use the skills they learned during the program to generate a more inclusive and operative environment at LVC.
"I feel that the 'In the Footsteps of Leaders' program brought the Student Government retreat to the next level," said Student Government executive board vice president Kelsey Robinson. "I believe that the group really enjoyed the program and gained a lot from it."

curious about babys hair....
Comments (11)
Becky, momma Queen in a houseful of princes
But sometimes you never know!
Oh, Fuck.
DH and me both have dirty blonde/light brown hair. Both DH and I had completely white toe head blonde hair as children. 2 of our kids were born with light brown/ dirty blonde hair, one has completely white toe head.
Trying to be productive while Miss Mischievous (7) Captain Destructor (5) Mr Must Be Held boy (4) and The Little Leprechaun do all they can to stop me
Both DH and I are naturally blonde. My oldest has dark blonde hair, my middle has white blonde hair, and my youngest has medium blonde hair. No two of them have the same texture of hair either. It's weird.
DH- Shawn
Four beautiful boys; Camden (9-6-07), Brenner (7-6-09), and Schafer, my Earth Day baby (4-22-11) and Bryton (3-22-13).
My son came out light brown but then turned red around 8wks and now at 3 has dirty blonde hair. His hair went curly around 20M too. My side has a lot of people with blonde hair but never for a moment did we think our kids would have it since brown is dominant. Love genetics!
I have reddish brown hair, and my husband has black... Our oldest two have dark brown hair, our third has blonde, our fourth has light-medium brown, and our youngest has dark brown.
Everyone always asks where "the blonde" came from. (With all kinds of lame jokes, to go with it.)
Will be interested to see what this one has! We're hoping for black hair, since it would be the first to have Dad's hair color.
I am hoping our babygirl gets her daddy's blue eyes ^.^ mine are hazel, but brown is dominant and that does run on my side.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. - Abraham Lincoln
"brown is dominant and that does run on my side."
There's hope. I have brown eyes, husband has green, and our kids have:
light blue
So, of our five kids, brown has only dominated twice!

See Your Fall Dining Table in a Whole New Light
Add the warmth and splendor of autumn to your dining table with the addition of an everyday lamp, grapevine, leaves and other natural elements.
Print OptionsClose
E-mail This Page to Your Friendsx
A link to %this page% was e-mailed
Ever wonder why fine dining restaurants often have small lamps on the tables? Because lamplight is warmer and more flattering than overhead light sources, and surrounding a table with a small pool of light creates a sense of intimate space. You can achieve this same effect at home by creating a unique fall centerpiece which uses an everyday lamp as its focal point.
Materials and Tools:
table runner
electrical or duct tape
14" grapevine wreath
fall leaves (silk or organic)
hawthorn berries (silk or organic)
small gourds (silk or organic)
pussywillow (silk or organic)
1. Position runner on table. Center lamp on runner, hide lamp's electrical cord under runner. Secure the cord to the tabletop with electrical or duct tape. Plug lamp into wall outlet, using a drop cord if necessary.
2. Now comes the fun part, dressing the table. To add seasonal flair, place a 14-inch grapevine wreath around the lamp's base. Into wreath, insert hawthorn berries, pussywillow and an assortment of fiery-colored leaves.
3. To complete the look, use miniature grapevine wreathes as napkin rings, pile a few small gourds around your centerpiece and scatter leaves about the table.

Carmin and Cameron's was the first wedding I had the opportunity to photograph at Bonitas Winery in Summerland, BC and I was totally blown away by what a gorgeous venue it is! Wow! Not to mention I got to photograph a beautiful couple in front of that amazing backdrop. I was so inspired and took way too many photos. haha. Carmin and Cameron are such a fun couple and you can tell they put so much of themselves into planning their day. There were so many handmade details and personal touches, from the wine box made by Cameron's dad, to Carmin's garter, veil and earrings made by Cameron's stepmom. Carmin worked so hard planning the big day and it completely paid off. She was also smart to stop at planning and leave the set-up and day-of coordination to the very talented Rachel and her team at Radiant Events. I was so impressed with the efficiency and dedication these guys displayed, while still being an upbeat and fun presence on the day.
I thought it was so cool, too, that Carmin and Cameron took a helicopter from their second photo location back to Bonitas! In a surprise change of events, I got to go up with them and it was such a fun ride! When we arrived at Bonitas all their guests were waving enthusiastically from the reception area and their wedding party met us at the landing spot.
The outdoor reception was so lovely and it was beautiful having the sky slowly changing colour in the background of their photos as the night progressed.
Thank you sooo much to my fantastic second shooter/assistant, Carley Bortolin for being her amazing self and always working her buns off!
Click here to check out Carmin and Cam's engagement photos!
The ring in Carmin's bouquet is her Dad's wedding ring. It was such a sweet way to have him close to her on her wedding day as he is no longer with us. First Look! Always love this moment when the couple sees each other for the first time. I told you this venue is gorgeous! The wind was having a heyday with Carmin's veil and they were quick on their feet, laughing it off and switching sides so it would blow in the right direction (until it finally blew right off. haha). This was such a treat! When I woke up that day I had no idea I would get to go on the helicopter ride with the couple. Talk about perk of the job! So fun!
Thank you so much for everything you two!! It was a total blast working with you!

The atmosphere was great; laid-back patrons, who seemed to appreciate good beer. My wife loved it because it "was dark...and romantic". As for me, I liked the lowlight setting, as I believe it soothed the patrons into speaking more softly. Having a normal volume conversation in this place is not a challenge.
The quality disappointed me somewhat. I've read about all of the past awards, and cool events (Royal Stumble, et al), and it really had me licking my chops to get to this place, so I was a little surprised that of the seven beers I sampled, less than half of them I would consider ordering again. This included the BPA cask ale (A+), Berliner Weisse (A-), and the Grog brown ale (B+). The selection was above average, if only for the reason that they actually had a Berliner Weisse on the menu. I wish more breweries would give this style a shot.
The service was very friendly and attentive, but nothing to make me say 'exceptional', while the food was near exceptional. For dinner, I decided to ask the server what the popular entrees were, and decided to go with the French dip with melted cheese, since I was in fact visiting the cheesesteak capital of the country. Let's just say that I wasn't disappointed.
I would certainly like to go back to this establishment to see what it's like during one of their popular events, as it seems to attract a good crowd.

Went here on 8/9 during my latest trip to Philly. This place is average at best, and i wasn't all that impressed with their beers. They had a sour wheat beer which was very blah, bu their porter did seem to be pretty good. Service was fine in regards to getting a beer, but some of the waitresses were doing shots and drinking on the job. Seemed pretty unprofessional, and the place itself did not impress me.
There are a ton of other breweries / brew pubs/ bars in Philly worth seeing over this place. Not the worst, but probably would not stop here again.

UPDATE (Feb. 23): A statement released from the Occupy Wall Street PR Working Group today clarified that the planned assembly is not an official project generated by the movement.
"The 99% Declaration and its call for a 'national general assembly' in Philadelphia in July is not affiliated with or endorsed by Occupy Wall Street, and the organizers' plans blatantly contradict OWS' stated principles," the release said. "The proposal was also rejected by the General Assembly of Occupy Philadelphia, which passed a resolution stating, 'We do not support the 99% Declaration, its group, its website, its National GA and anything else associated with it.' "
"Occupy Wall Street" protesters will continue their evolution as a movement this summer, announcing through its working group a "general assembly" convention in Philadelphia for early July.
According the Associated Press, the 99 percent Declaration Working Group said that the convention would elect 876 delegates throughout 50 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. territories.
The plan is to select a man and a woman from each of the 435 congressional voting districts to create and ratify a "redress of grievances," emulating how the Declaration of Independence was formed in 1776 in Philadelphia.
"We feel it's appropriate to go back to what our founding fathers did and have another petition congress," said Michael S. Pollock, an attorney who co-founded the working group. "We feel that following the footsteps of our founding fathers is the right way to go."
Once the bill is competed, protesters will send the bill to the White House, Congress, and the Supreme Court, demanding action within the first 100 days of office next year.
Pollock indicated the protesters have already selected a site in Philadelphia for the convention and will pay for it through donations. He added that details for the convention are still being discussed.

This perfectly proportioned shift dress will light up any room with its sophisticated shine. The silhouette is sleek and flattering with a softly twisted detail at the waist to accentuate ladylike curves. Look closely at how the black sequins are embedded within tiny metallic Lurex threads to create unbelievable texture, and the pailette corsage that sits at the neckline adding a festive touch. A nice surprise is that the fabric has stretch and so does the lining. It fits true to size with a back zip. Leon Max.
Impossibly chic, impossibly sexy: This high-heeled velvet and satin artfully-designed pair of shoes makes every other pair of dressy/cocktail in your closet look tired, love at first sight! The velvet adds glamour and it wraps around the foot and the ½ inch hidden platform while the satin piping and T-strap add sheen. Use the arrow to zoom in to see the extended back soft piece that brings drama and newness of silhouette and also the construction of the 5 inch heel. The inside is leather lined and the peep-toe is lined with satin. Fits true to size. Maxstudio.

Will This Upgrade Help UIL Holdings (UIL) Today?
Story updated at 9:45 a.m.to reflect market activity.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Bank of America-Merrill Lynch upgraded UIL Holdings (UIL) to "buy" from "neutral" Monday.
Shares of UIL gained 1.5% to $35.37 in morning trading.
Share could reach as high as $38 according to the bank. The upgrade it due to UIL shares trading well below their fundamental value according to Bank of America-Merrill Lynch analysts.Must Read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Dividend Stocks STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. ------------- Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates UIL HOLDINGS CORP as a Buy with a ratings score of A. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate UIL HOLDINGS CORP (UIL) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its growth in earnings per share, revenue growth and increase in net income. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- UIL HOLDINGS CORP has improved earnings per share by 28.6% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, UIL HOLDINGS CORP increased its bottom line by earning $2.18 versus $2.02 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.28 versus $2.18).
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 3.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 2.9%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- The company, on the basis of net income growth from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed compared to the Electric Utilities industry average, but is greater than that of the S&P 500. The net income increased by 40.1% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $28.84 million to $40.42 million.
- The gross profit margin for UIL HOLDINGS CORP is currently lower than what is desirable, coming in at 27.96%. Regardless of UIL's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, UIL's net profit margin of 9.28% compares favorably to the industry average.
- UIL has underperformed the S&P 500 Index, declining 12.49% from its price level of one year ago. Looking ahead, although the push and pull of the overall market trend could certainly make a critical difference, we do not see any strong reason stemming from the company's fundamentals that would cause a continuation of last year's decline. In fact, the stock is now selling for less than others in its industry in relation to its current earnings.

history meme | three inventions ∙ alberto santos dumont's 14-bis
In October 23, 1906 the Brazilian Alberto Santos Dumont made the first mechanical flight on a heavier-than-air machine: at 4 p.m. his airplane, the "14-bis", rose from the ground and traveled the distance of 60 meters at a height of 2 to 3 meters: a small flight for a man but a great flight for humanity!
On November 12, he set the first aviation record in the world, flying 220 meters in 21 ½ seconds with members of the Aero-Club du France in attendance. This won Santos Dumont a prize of 1500 francs for making the first flight over 100 meters. The flight was observed by officials from what would become the Federation Aeronautique Internationale (the designated keeper of aviation records), and was credited the first mechanical flight in the world.
When Santos Dumont decided to attack the problem of the mechanical flight, this conception was considered utopian by his contemporaries, and remained so until 1905. After Dumont's flight, nobody doubted more of the possibility of the mechanical flight. French Captain Ferber in his book "Aviation" written in 1907, says: "The Brazilian inventor has proved that flying machines can fly," which is equivalent to saying that until then nobody else had.
