Jonn
Kares - Executive Communications Consultant
Former
CBC broadcaster Jonn Kares
works with Business Executives
helping them be more effective communicators.
One particular area of assistance
is job interview preparation.
Job
interviews are a competitive arena.
And the candidates making the best
impressions in job interviews are
the ones that get hired. This is especially
true when a field of equally capable
and equally qualified candidates is
in the running.
YOU
CAN'T CONTROL OTHERS' PERCEPTIONS.
BUT WE ALL HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OVER
WHAT WE BRING TO THE SITUATION.
But
when it comes to making winning impressions,
many candidates can be their own worst
enemy. By focusing intently on only
the content of their resume, or what
they say, or how they look, they can
fail to provide the equally important other
information interviewers will
also be basing their impressions on.
IN
THE BLINK OF AN EYE
Some
say job interviewers reach a decision
within the first 10 seconds of the
interview, possibly before any words
are even spoken. The winning candidates are
those who have learned how to direct
the information people base their
“blink” decisions on — the not so
visible details that influence perceptions
that go beyond dressing sharp, a firm
handshake and saying the right words.
Jonn
Kares brings together the
latest research in psychology, neuro-science
and communications theory to teach
candidates how to direct interviewer
perceptions so that ALL the good things
they have to offer become readily
apparent, to increase their chances
of getting the job offer they really
want, and get hired.
