Good news, I got a phone call today from the managing director and he told me that they are happy to offer me the job as an Assistant Finance Officer. He told me that I can start from next week.
I applied for the job through seek and was invited to the interview by a phone call after few weeks, I only had a one round interview with two managers. Interview lasted for about an hour and the questions wereall Behavioural type.
The Questions were very similar as the interview questions we covered in Interview class and they helped me a lot to answer the questions fluently and helped me to be very confident.
At the end of the interview I asked them few questions and tried to leave a good impression by saying that I am very interested in the role and keen to work for your company.
Another important thing which helped me to get the job was that when I came home after the interview I send an email to both interviewers to thank for the interview. In my letter I tried to pick up the most important point about the role and the company and wrote about it by saying "I have a real interest in this area of work. Being the environment of the job very fast pasted made me more interested in the role. I believe my hard working personality would certainly enable me to make a valuable contribution to your Company."
I would recommend all the trainees to apply the last point during their interview process which would really push one step forward then other candidates.
This is pretty much about my interview experience.
Thank you Coco for all your professional help and support during the training and after the training which really helped me to get this job.
With Kind Regards,
Zane
