Interviewing: Perspective From Both Sides of the Table

Effective Job Interviewing From Both Sides of the Desk

View more documents from Andy Lester.

 I'm lucky to have been both an interviewee and an interviewer at some point in my career, so I understand how both "sides of the table" are feeling during an interview.

Rather than try to capture those thoughts, feelings and opinions in a lengthy post, I found a perfect presentation on slideshare (it's an awesome website that hosts a library of powerpoint presentations you can view, embed and share) that has helpful information for both the interviewer and interviewee.

Readers - how have your on-campus interviews been? What questions do you have about interviewing? Please comment with your thoughts, stories, tips and tricks.

With so much that needs to be done…we only had four days to complete all of this! (since Friday was the final presentation and ‘graduation’ ceremony).
