Interview Tips
After the first interview next step is second interview. When employers
complete their initial interviews for a job opening, they ask the top
candidates back for a second interview before making a final decision. The
second interview is also known as the site visit, office visit, or plant
visit. A second interview may be the last step in the process before an offer
is made.
Both the employer and the interviewee should have specific goals during the
second interview.
- Employer's Goals:
- Identifying specific qualities:
In the first interview employers are trying to identify many general
qualities important to their organization, but in the second interview
employers will try to determine if you are having the specific qualities
they are looking for in a new employee.
- Identifying organizational fit:
Employers also want to see how others in the organization respond to you
and if you fit their corporate culture.
- Interviewee's goals:
Interviewee's goals are to view the facilities, meet employees of the
organization. You have to determine if the company, the job, and the people
are a strong fit for you.
The second interviews are having two categories.
- Structured Interviews
A second interview is considered structured if each interviewer has specific
criteria they use to assess you. One person may ask questions to determine
your computer skills or your sales ability. Another one may ask about
educational background.

evaluation. Treat each interviewer with equal importance. You may get
similar questions from all the interviewers. Do not get bored to Answer the
same questions.
