Hrm/531 Week 2 Employment Interview Questions

Improved Essays
Before attending the Career Expo, I prepared the resume and printed each copy for the employers of my interest to whom I will submit my resume. I was curious to feels new experience. I researched the companies that I wanted to speak such as Microsoft Corporation, Amazon, Texas Instrument (TI), and State Farm. I prepared a set of questions to ask during the Career Expo such as:
- What kind of skills and experience are you looking in employees to hire?
- What kind of academic qualification you guys are interested in?
- What kind of entry – level positions you have open in your company?
- Which courses you guys recommended us to take in school?
- Would you prefer computer engineering or computer science for programming?

All the companies are in a big room with company banner and recruiting consultant. They all are well organized. By knowing the layout of different companies I figure out the way to approach them and asked questions. There was not a long queue as I expected in my interested company. Only the line of F1 visa students was long. While standing in the line, I hear them carefully and found out what type of question they are asking and what they are expecting from candidates. I talked with TI recruiter and instantly he comments on my resume. He told me, we shouldn’t have to put an objective in a resume when we applied for an internship. While waiting for recruiter, I talked with other students about their experience and share my experience. Microsoft Corporation line was long and I waited there for forty-five minute, but I learned a lot while standing in a line. I talked with a friend who completed an internship last summer at the Microsoft Corporation; he was there to apply again for next summer internship. He shared his experience with me and told me what type of questions they ask to recruit

    There are ways of handling this case differently from employer and employee. Let's start with the hiring phase: 1.

The employer failed to ask if there are any issues with the availability to attend these days/hours and mandatory meetings (Addressing the issues of hours and days during interviews will cause fewer problems during their time at the company).…
