Shortlisting Process

Shortlisting is the process of identifying the candidates that meet the criteria laid out in the job advertisement. They’re applicants that you want to move forward with in the recruitment process, most likely by having an initial interview or otherwise moving on to the next stage of the recruitment funnel.

Every company or employer have their own way of shortlisting. At Careers Office, we guide candidates through on how to write a professional CV and cover letter that will catch the attention of hiring Managers.

Preparation for Interviews

Preparation for Interviews is compulsory if you are shortlisted, here are common asked Interview questions:

  1. Tell me about yourself: This is usually the opening question for most interviews and can be one of the most important.
  2. Why do you want this job? Now you have to go deeper and be straightforward. We don’t advise that you just talk about why the company would be great to work for; elaborate more about how the position is a perfect fit based on your qualification, experience, skills and attributes.
  3. What are your strengths/weaknesses? This question is often seen as challenging by many candidates, Just pick a theoretical strength/weakness and magically transform that mark. Example; ”I don’t find pleasure to knock off while the job for the day is not done, that’s my weakness”
  4. What are your salary expectations? Interview questions about finances or salary can be tricky to answer. But instead of stating how much you expect as a basic salary, somehow specify your personal goals.
  5. Why should we hire you? The aim of this question is to evaluate how you perceive your own skills, qualification, experience and how confident you are in your own abilities.
Careers Office Guideline

The most important thing, overcome fear during the interview in order to answer properly.
