A strong handshake in a Medical jobs interview

A strong handshake in a Medical jobs interview

When applying for a Medical job in Ireland - remember -

 

  1. Your interview is a sales process - you are selling yourself to a potential employer
  2. Close the sale - interview - ie ask when you will hear, what is the next stage etc
  3. On your CV - do not use initials or acronyms - do not assume the reader knows what any of these stand for - always write words out in full
  4. Outline your relevant Irish experience
  5. Ireland is a small country and as a result it is unwise to exaggerate or lie about contacts you have in the Medical Industry in Ireland
  6. Equally, if they are genuine contacts, this can work to your benefit - dropping names can be useful
  7. Competition is at an all time high, so ensure your information is up to date, relevant and accurate
  8. Research involved in going for an interview now seeks the Candidate who goes ‘well beyond’ the usual format of reading up a website etc - ie someone who shows initiative
  9. Always have a reason for leaving after each job on your CV, otherwise you are left open to assumations being made that may not be true.
  10. A strong and dry hand shake is important and demonstrates a genuine person.

These are just some useful tips when applying for any Medical job in Ireland
