How to Act at a Business Lunch A lunch meeting or a job interview over a meal? Don’t overlook proper etiquette! From seating to selecting the right dish, how you handle yourself can leave a lasting impression. Key tips: Wait for the host to sit first. Choose a meal that’s easy to eat. Avoid alcohol and expensive menu items. Wait for everyone to be served before eating. Mind your table manners—cut food one piece at a time and avoid talking with your mouth full.

When asked how you handle stress in an interview, show that you're the chef who thrives under pressure, not the one who burns the kitchen down. For example, describe a step-by-step process that helps you remain focused and effective under pressure, linking this method to positive outcomes from past experiences. This approach turns your answer from merely coping with stress to harnessing it for success. #ResumeWriting #SouthShields #Sunderland #Recruitment #CareerSearch #PersonalDevelopment #NorthEast #NorthShields #CareerAdvancement #CareerCoachingService #CareerSuccess #CareerCoachingOnline #GreatResignation #CareerGuidance #CareerAdviser #CareerGrowth #ExecutiveCoaching #CareerCoachUK #OnlineCareerCoaching #CareerCoachingServices

The 'Tell me about yourself' question is one of those questions that sounds simple, but can turn into 10+ minutes of rambling if you're not prepared. This is particularly true in the #retail sector. Where do you even begin? What details should you include? And how much is too much? Our very own, Cheri Jackman, advises, 'Highlight your professional journey with a personal touch, keeping it concise yet impactful. We're here to delve deeper if needed and will ask follow up questions.' Her challenge to you: condense your experience into 3-4 sentences while showcasing what sets you apart. If there are other areas of your #interview where you're not articulating your story and skills well, check out our course for more interview suggestions and coaching! Remember, interviewing is a skill. Invest in yourself to show up better and get that dream offer! https://lnkd.in/g9s3kanr #jobinterview #interviewquestions #jobsearch #retailrecruiting #retailjobs
