Project Management Job Interview : Introduction

Introduction

The hiring process and the job interview as they are conducted today in too many job sites do not necessarily end with the hiring of the most qualified person.Just like in any existing job, the interesting projects and the promotions do not necessarily go to those most qualified, but to those who present themselves better.

During a job interview, candidates are subject to tremendous stress.They are judged on what they say and how they say it.The job seeker has to answer specific questions and must also display knowledge, experience and sought-after character traits.In addition, he/she should be gathering information about the job and the company.The candidate who performs the best in this complex situation usually gets the job.

It is important to understand that a resume, a PMP certification, a degree, networking or other means can get you an interview, but only excelling at the job interview will get you the job.It is during the job interview that you must prove that you can actually do the job and that you want to do it.If you perform badly in the interview, no matter how good your resume looks or how good your references are, it is most likely that you will not get the job.
