My interview experience.
My present job is safety supervisor for the a company which that specializes in electrical & mechanical installation for factories and buildings factory and building. I used to work at many construction sites in many provinces. But because I had some troubles with my supervisor/boss leader, so I had to return to the office and work there until now. I want to change my job. I want to get a similar position in the a factory instead of the a construction site. Therefore, I tried my best to prepare everything for this change. I joined in some took a course to improve my professional knowledge & get some certificates. I searched many articles about the interview experience on the internet. I prepared my CV carefully. And I applied for many companies. But I was failed again and again. In some cases, they refused me because they didn’t believe that I worked as a safety supervisor. In some other cases, I wasn’t unsuccessful (you could say: "I was unsuccessful" OR "I wasn't successful") because of my English ability. In the most recent case, I got the fail result again. The reason which they give gave me made me feel so disappointed.
I put had a lot of expectations for this interview because this is the company which that I really want to apply for. There were two parts of to the interview. The first time was with the direct manager, and the second time was with the HR manager. I was passed the first time part of the interview but I was failed in the second. But I still keep contacting with the direct manager who interviewed me in the first part time. Yesterday, he called me and he said that he appreciated my knowledge and experience, but the HR manager didn’t accept me because he feels that I’m so meek and mild. And he said that he felt so sorry about that. How do I have to prove myself? I prepared everything carefully for the second interview. And I think thought everything were very good went very well during the interview. But when the HR manager asked me: “What’s your comment about yourself?” I didn’t prepare wasn't prepared for this question. I said that: “Everyone commented that I’m meek”. And that answer killed my opportunity. Before that, when I got the result, I thought I was failed because my English listening and speaking skill is so bad. In the interview, I admitted that is my weakness. But I really feel so sorry and can’t accept his reason. It’s unacceptable. If he said that I was failed because I’m not good at English or don’t have enough experience, maybe I would feel more pleasant.
I just received a call for a new interview appointment. I don’t like this company as much as the other above one. But,but I will try and learn by from the experience of the previous time.
Very good! One additional comment: try not to begin sentences with the words "and" or "but", as that is technically incorrect. You can use a comma to connect it to the previous sentence, or use a different word such as "also", "additionally", or "however". Good luck in your next interview! :)
