🤝🏻RECRUITING TALENT
INTRODUCTION
THE BAD INTERVIEW (video)
🟢WATCH this interview (🖱click here)
Spot all the mistakes made by the candidate before and during the interview: body language, attitude, answers, etc.
Will this candidate land the job?
- In the waiting room, the candidate has a nonchalant/disrespectful/rude attitude.
- He is on his phone.
- He enters the employer’s office and sits without saying hello.
- He doesn’t …
- His language is too familiar, and he makes disrespectful/inappropriate remarks.
- His clothes are too casual = not adapted to a professional meeting.
- He answers his phone during the interview………….
- He doesn’t shake hands to say hello or to say goodbye
- His outfit is too casual = it is not professional
- He is too arrogant and too sure of himself = he is overconfident
- He is too self-centred.
🟢Now, rewrite what the candidate SHOULD/ SHOULD NOT DO during a job interview (⚠ SHOULD + BaseVerbale)
HE SHOULD CHANGE/ IMPROVE HIS ATTITUDE
- HE SHOULDN’T have inappropriate remarks.
- HE SHOULD WEAR A CLEANER, MORE PROFESSIONAL OUTFIT
- HE SHOULD BE MORE FOCUSED
- HE SHOULDN’T ANSWER HIS PHONE DURING THE JOB INTERVIEW → HE SHOULD TURN OFF HIS PHONE
- HE SHOULD BE MORE MODEST = LESS SURE OF HIMSELF
- HE SHOULDN’T TALK ABOUT THE WAGE EXPECTATIONS.
- HE SHOULD SAY HELLO AND GOODBYE.
💡Transposer au passé:
He answers his phone
→ He should not/ shouldn’t answer his phone.
→ He should turn off his phone (il devrait éteindre son téléphone)
He answered his phone during this interview
→ He SHOULD HAVE TURNED off his phone ((il aurait dû éteindre son téléphone)
→ He SHOULD NOT/ SHOULDN’T have answered his phone
