Mock Job Interview Quiz

I've created a mock job interview quiz to challenge the strength of your job interview skills. No job seeker wants to hear these words after their interview: "Thank you for taking the time to interview with us, but we've decided to hire someone else." ...especially after spending weeks preparing for a job you really want. And good luck getting any kind of meaningful feedback from the employer as to why you fell short. That's a laugh!
FACT: After your interview, hiring managers always talk about you in vivid detail. Sometimes they even laugh and joke about something you said or did. Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall in one of these meetings to hear the good, bad, and ugly about yourself?
Well...I've actually been that fly on the wall in my role as an executive recruiter for hundreds of major corporations over the past 16 years. Not only were hiring managers brutally honest with me about how my candidates dropped the ball, they sometimes blamed me! I even lost a few accounts over it trying to defend my candidates. The good news is that all this blunt feedback revealed a pattern of boo-boos, missteps, and lack of proper interview etiquette...that if you only knew about ahead of time...would give you a decided heads-up over other job seekers. So based on this harsh feedback, I've created a 20 question, multiple-choice quiz to accurately test your job interview skills. My quiz describes an interview situation, then asks you to select the best way to handle it. All 20 questions are based on real situations selected from comments made to me by actual hiring authorities. In a way, this quiz is a mini mock job interview.
Sample Test QuestionYou arrive at your interview and the HR manager hands you an application for employment and asks you to fill it out. One of the questions asks: What are your salary expectations? What should you put down? - Your current compensation package
- Your current compensations package + 5%
- Your current compensations package + 10%
- Just write down "To be discussed"
When you've completed the test, you will immediately receive your grade plus your "interview readiness" status.- 90-100% - Outstanding! Expect an offer
- 80-89% - Very Good. Expect to be a finalist
- 70-79% - Fair. You've got work to do
- 60-69% - Back to the drawing boards
After each incorrect answer, will be a brief commentary as to why this strategy/answer doesn't work, along with at least one link to a detailed article on my website...similar to a mock job interview. It only costs $1.99 to take the quiz...the price of a decent cup of coffee. And you can take it as many times as you want.
Free Bonus Report if you take the quiz: The 10 Biggest Mistakes People Make When They Resign, PLUS 2 sample resignation letters I recommend to all of my candidates so they don't burn any bridges, or set themselves up for a bad reference. This report also explains what to do if you receive a counter-offer. All the information in this exclusive 7 page report is not available to the public on my website. So...would you like your butterflies flying in formation when you arrive for you job interview? Take the test and remove all doubt.
