I have 2 interviews tomorrow... I need some help.? |
I have two interviews tomorrow for a job, the first interview is for this job at this hotel, and the second one is for this phone operator for this insurance company at this hospital. Of course I would love to work at the hospital bcs I am sure they pay more, but I don't know if I even qualify bcs I have no real experience with the medical field, I do have a lot of customer service experience and that might help me get the job. But, the question is... Should I tell the hotel manager that I have another interview later tomorrow and that I am interested in that job too? Or should I just play it cool... and accept his job offer and see what happens with my other interview? And if I do that and I get the hospital job, should I let the hotel manager know that I am not going to accept his offer after all? Thanks for any advise you can give me. Ciao. Do not tell each about the jobs. Do not assume a hospital will pay more. They do not always. Often they do not. I have worked in both and the hospitals were more rewarding, but pay much less. You might get diferential for working nights or weekends. Just wait and see. If you speak another language a hospital might pay you more for that. Since it is insurance it might pay higher. You are going to need to be strong for this job because you might not be able to be nice, but you are going to have to be polite. Insurance can put you in a bad situation people get frusturated because insurance withholds care. If you have any tatoos or peircings take them out for both interviews or conceal them and do not wear them for work. You may have to wear scrubs if you work at the hospital or a uniform for the hotel. Dress up with a long sleved shirt and tie for both interviews. Wear dress pants. Wear a suit jacket or a blaizer. If you do not have one at least do the shirt, tie and kakies. These are both very serious jobs. No jeans. The hotel might be less stressful. Look at what you will be doing in both jobs. Ask questions about the jobs, but be willing to work. Be ready for confrontational type questions. They may ask you how you deal with difficult people. They may ask you how you calm someone who is irate. They may ask for a flaw of yourself. A question I got was how I deal with constuctive criticism. Some people have asked qestion about working with co workers you do not like because they do not get along with any of their employess. Other questions are like how are you going to be able to trust a supervisor when they disipline you. If you can put a positive spin on these questions it is good. Some supervisors are big on these yucky questions. If you have thought out answers it really helps. They may not ask these questions, but people in the medical field can be toxic and dyfunctional, so be prepared. As for jobs hopefully you will not be offered on the spot, but get a feel for who you like. If you get a tour take it. If they say you can informally ask questions and this is not part of the interview remember it is. Ask some questions, but mainly listen. Keep your ears open and let them do most of the talking, but do ask a few questions. Hope that helps. Wait for the decisions and make the choice. In an ideal world you would be offered both. If you can do research on the jobs on the web. Find out whatever you can about the hospital and the hotel. It really helps. Look for a mission statement of the hospital and what they do. Just brose around. Look at the hotel web site and just browse around. This can do wonders for an interview. I have actually been more prepared because of this. Someone asked me what I wanted for pay. I knew everyone got a standard pay. I said I just wanted the standard pay. That was all I could get. It was a union thing. No point bothering. I would not get anything higher or lower. If you know people that work either place ask them for any info you can get. PS Have a resume ready in a folder and have references ready in case they want them. Only give them references if they want them. Keep them on a separate paper. Oh and bring your own black ball point pen. Interviews hate people not having one and using theirs for some reason. It makes them really mad. Go figure. And have some white paper to take a few notes. Oh I just noticed you speak spanish great that is the best 2nd language for a hospital. Big Advantage. Muy bien!!!!!!! Yo hablo espanol un poco, solomente un poco. Yo soy una gringa. Yo viva en Neuvo Mexico Mi espano es muy malo yo quinsoko. Yo Hablo espanol con una bambina piquina. Lo siento mucho. Necistas un libro para practiar los palabras y verbos. Mi grammar es horrible yo quninsko. Adios Yo quiero usted un bien dia manyana. Lo siento par mi vocabulario malo. I say play it cool, until you are offered a position, I'm goin' threw the same thing right now!! This place offered me a job yesterday, and I straight up told them "I have another place that is interested in me, can I call you in 2 days with my decision" and they were cool with that....GOOD LUCK!! I hope you wait out and get the job you want!! i'm not any good at that stuff but working at a hotel could be cool I always wanted my cousin to work at a hotel so i can get free rooms and chill at the pools! What ever happens Good luck! How about you pick the job you want the most and you go to the other jobs interview and say "**** off i don't want to be part of your fuckin company. Do not mention to the hotel that you have another interview because that may discourage him/her from offering you the job, wait and see what happens at the hospital and then if you do get the job at the hospital and the hotel did offer you a job first, call immediately to let them know that you will not be able to accept the job, always be courteous and polite and think of other people as well as yourself. i think you should relax and ask anything that might help you know more Don't say anything. If they offer you the job up front, ask if you can have 24 hours to sleep on it. Also when you are in the hospital interview, ask them what your responsibilities would be and what kind of training they offer. Good Luck! |
