Once you make it through the first two stages, you are in a select group of candidates who are
invited to the on-site Interview. The purpose of the on-site Interview is to determine the
candidate’s suitability for a job offer. The Interview is typically a series of face-to-face interviews
conducted by the hiring manager, the department manager, and HR manager, even potential
co-workers. As the name suggests, the on-site Interview is typically conducted in connection
with a visit to one of the hiring company’s facilities.
The interview is arranged by the organization to determine whether to extend an offer of employment to you. It also should give you enough information to know whether you’d like to accept the job. The site interview will focus on your qualifications, skills and accomplishments, as well as your motivation to do the job well, and how well you will fit with the culture.
At this stage, you are a viable candidate, so impress the interviewer with both your questions and your responses. Also take the opportunity to observe and determine whether you could contribute, grow, and enjoy working in the organization.
We recommend that you stay away from asking questions about benefits and salary. Take the approach of "What problems are you having, and how can I help solve them?"
You may spend part of your interview with a human resources department representative. They’re responsible for giving you information about policies, working conditions, benefits, typical career progression, and similar details. Remember this person, too, will be assessing your personality and behavior to determine your fit for the culture.
The employer's impressions will be based not only on your ability to answer questions correctly, but also on your tone of voice, choice of words and enthusiasm.
Have a list of questions ready (see the list below for suggestions). By asking effective questions, you will be in a better position to make a good career decision.
At the end of this interview, you may be told when to expect a decision. If not, ask what the time frame is to make a decision, or what the next step will be. If you don’t hear by the specified date, call to ask about the status of your application.
