How To Get The Job You Really
Really Want - And...Finally - Ask For The Job
That only leaves one other thing to do. This you
should do at the very end of the final interview. You have been
through the entire process, it is the end of the final interview.
You have seen everybody you need to, you know all you need to know
about the company, how it works, and what your potential role is.
You are happy, and keen to be offered the job. Let
the interviewer know this, and then, the very last thing....any
ideas?
ASK FOR THE
JOB!!!
This is really quite simple, and would probably go
something like this;-
You: "Well, thank-you very much for your time, I
have really enjoyed meeting you, have we covered everything we need
to?"
Interviewer: " Yes, I believe we have".
You: " Thank-you, I would just like to say, how
impressed I have been with you and your company. I believe I can
bring major benefits to this role, and the company as a whole. I
would very much like the job". You can either wait for a response
(preferred) or ask the next question straight away (it does need to
be asked either way). "When do you expect to be able to give me an
answer?"
You may be surprised and get offered there and then!
However, at very least you will be told when to
expect an answer. If you don't get a positive answer at that time,
you can push a little bit more by asking:-
"How do you think I have done?"
If you do ask this question, again, you may get a
straight answer. Now you have to be alert here, because even if you
get the stock "I have to speak to Personnel" or " I still have
others to interview", you should be aware of the interviewers' body
language and listen to HOW he answers you. If you do this, I believe
you can make a very informed guess as to the outcome!
