I have 2 interviews COMING UP Next Week! . I need one of them because due to some family problems I lost my sales job and my car is going into reposession soon , and my Insurance will be cancelled if i dn’t pay Them close to 400 dollars by next week .
One of my Interview is as a Field Technician .
The other is as a Personal Banker at a bank located near my apartment.
Now It’s the Field technician Position I am nost scared about because due to fear of losing my car and not having a job I exaggerated on my resume and Wrote the following experiences..
• Read and interpreted mechanical, optical, and electric specifications.
• Achieved exceptional accuracy with using multi-meters, digital oscilloscopes, DVM and function generators
• Achieved promotion within one year to supervise and train team members as necessary
Now ofcource first 2 points are really easy for me since I learned them in my lab at college ( I graduated with electrical and computer engineering degree ) ..
[The job requires for me to travel to peoples houses and fix their stuff -- All i know like it says on my "experience section " is read electric specifications , kno how to use multi meters , oscilloscopes, Function generators and so on .., But I got no clue How much more or how much deeper of an expereience the Employer requires from me , Am i worrying too much ,
I really need this job . ]
But i am really getting tensed now because I really want this job and I am not sure what kind of questions he might ask me when I get to the interview ..
What do you think ?
Looks like you’re struggling to get a response here. I don’t know much about your field of expertise, but, I do know about interviewing.
Go online and look for resume samples or job description samples for a Field Technician – I just did a google search and found many of them.
They’re obviously going to ask you to describe/elaborate on your experience. Give them examples. What you did, the equipment you worked with, etc. They want to know how MUCH you know. Don’t lie. Be unfront. If they find you have enough of a general knowledge and experience, they may hire you and put you on a training track right away to enhance your knowledge.
Sites like monster.com have samples of basic interview questions you can expect. Read them and practice your answers.
Do an online search of the company and find out more about it. One of the standard questions is “tell us what you know about our company”.
Don’t go in desperately wanting this job. Be confident in your knowledge and how you present yourself. Dress professionally, shower, clean up, take a copy of your resume with you. Be prepared.
Good luck!
