Prepare
For Your Interview
You should use your
waiting time to prepare for your interviews. This is another critical step
overlooked by many hopeful job seekers -- and time and time again,
it costs them a job that may have already been in their hands. For
example, if you went on an interview and were asked the tough question, "So
how much money are you looking for?", would you know how to respond?
Did you know if you would answer with a dollar amount, it could potentially cost
you thousands of dollars or even the job? Interviewing
Secrets Revealed gives you proven tips and techniques to help you
respond appropriately to this and 52 other commonly asked job interview
questions. This resource will give you what you need to present yourself
professionally, confidently, and in a way that sets you apart from other job
candidates. This is
what one hiring manager had to say about candidates who've used these proven job
interview tips: "I
have consistently found that candidates from Gregg come in extremely well
prepared for their job interviews. As an individual who has interviewed and
hired many professionals..., I have always been more likely to hire an
individual who asks intelligent questions during the interview, and is ready to
communicate clearly to me what his or her job contribution... will be. Gregg has
consistently sent me individuals who meet these interviewing
standards, thereby having the highest likelihood of being hired, and receiving
the most substantial job offers".

Set
Up Your Home Office
Also, while you're waiting, it's a good idea to
keep busy. If you spend your time waiting for the phone to ring, or
watching your e-mail box, you may become discouraged if you don't see results as
quickly as you'd like.
On the other hand, spending
your time setting up your home office and preparing to work at home, will help
you to keep a positive, focused attitude -- an essential element to your work at
home success.
To work at home, you'll need to
have the following basic equipment and supplies:
-
Desk
-
Comfortable Work Chair
-
Computer
Hardware (200+ MHz hard drive w/minimum 16MB RAM, CD-ROM, sound card,
speakers, 1+ gigabytes of hard drive space, monitor (minimum 15"
preferred), keyboard, microphone)
-
Printer
(I have an all-in-one color printer, fax machine, copier, and scanner.
You save considerably over purchasing each piece of equipment separately,
and it's a compact unit that fits nicely into any small office space.)
-
Email
and Internet Access (DSL or broadband service is preferred -- the faster the
connection, the better)
-
Fax
Machine
-
Copier
-
Scanner
-
Voicemail
(a separate phone line and voicemail for business use is preferred)
-
Pager/Cell
Phone
-
Appropriate
software
-
Business
License (check your State's requirements)
-
Office
Supplies (including any other office furniture, i.e. lamps, filing cabinet,
etc.)
-
Business
Cards (self-employed or business owners)
-
Stationery
Package (letterhead/envelopes; self-employed or business owners)
-
Marketing
Collateral (flyers/brochures/post cards; self-employed or business owners)
