- My team is very important to me I rely on
them and they rely on me. I lead by example,
so I always set a standard. I do this because
it creates a non negotiable level of productivity which helps us all work towards common
goals.!
!
- How would you define success?"
!
I measure success with the results achieved
by the company and the productivity of my
department. As a department I think that we
are only as good as the last task completed.
Historic reference of performance helps me
to set my personal goals and for my team.!
- Decisive, a good communicator, friendly but
firm management style. Someone who is flexible in approach and is team orientated.!
!
- Can I ask you what your salary requirements are?"
!
- I am looking for a salary that reflects my experience and my educational background.!
!
- What hobbies and interests do you
have?"
!
- I like keeping fit, I try to go bike riding at
the weekends.!
!
!
- If you had a member of your team
who was sick and you had an important deadline, how would you
cope?"
- How long have you been doing
that?"
!
- About 5 years.!
!
!
- If I was at team member down,
planning would be critical as the
deadline could be effected. I am
a flexible manager who always
maintains a high level of interaction. If such a situation occurred, I
would expect more from my team and
I am sure that they would adhere. I
may introduce a non monetary incentive to help motivate them to achieve
the end result.!
- Great, ok I would like to ask
you about motivation, what
motivates you?"
!
- Professionally and personally, I
am optimistic in nature. I find a
clients feedback the most rewarding
part of a process. If they are happy
they will return, spend more money
with the company and ultimately provide the company and me with more
opportunity.!

what would you say they were?"

we have had a tremendous response for this position so we
would appreciate your patience. "
!
- What about your weaknesses?"
!
We are holding second interviews
within the next month and we will
be notifying everyone shortly. Could
I ask if you have any questions for
me?"
- I would have to say that planning
is one of my main strengths. The
process is very rewarding, especially when results are achieved.!
- I have a high attention for detail,
sometimes I have been known to
check something more than necessary. I have recently attended
an international time management course to address this.!
!
- If I asked you to name some of the qualities of a good manager, what would you
say?"
!
!
!
!
!
!
- Yes, I read recently that your organisation promotes training, do you offer
this at all levels?!
- Yes we do, all our management positions
are filled internally. It’s something we are
very proud of as a company."
