I just found out that there are still series of preparation you need to do before you face your job interview. And its conducting a company background research. So that you can prepare yourself to the question the interviewer might ask you during your interview. Here are some tips you can use to have a good company background research:
1) You can use the resources of the internet for your research. You may ask help from google or yahoo, if your company is commonly known you will not have hard time in searching because they are sometimes required to make some company information available to public.
2) You can also have a lot of friends who might know something about the company you are researching. Like for example your friends aunt is working as supervisor to the company you are researching then you can ask her some question about the company and that will be a big help.
What is a Panel Interview?
According to About.com, a panel interview is a type of interview where there are two or more interviewers. The main objective is to test the interviewee’s stress tolerance. It also aims to know how the interviewee will initiate an interaction with his future bosses and workmates should he get hired.
At any given point, a panel interview consists of multiple interviewers who belong to the different parts of the organization. They take turns in throwing questions to the interviewee. Questions here range from easy to difficult as there are more people that work together in squeezing out knowledge and information from the interviewee.
Although the frequency of getting a panel interview is little as one-on-one interviews are more common, it is highly advisable that a job seeker be prepared for this kind of interview.
