We all know that before embarking on the hunt for that perfect part-time job, you need all your ducks in a row. So you do a load of industry research, incessantly nose around online job boards, painstakingly update your resume, whip up a snappy cover letter… and then you’re set, right?
Ideally, your work pays off, your potential employer likes what they see and they schedule an interview. But you can’t simply show up for that interview with your resume in tow and an elevator speech on how you are a “team player and a real go-getter.” The art of interviewing is a give and take, to-and-fro process that requires conveying your strengths and background while listening closely to the information that the hiring manager is providing you. Make no mistake, having a healthy repartee with your interviewer just might be the thing that sets you apart from all the other applicants in line for the job.
