Do you truly understand the California online speech therapy job interview?
You need that job already! The resume seems perfect, and you are pumped for the interview. As far as you are concerned what could stand in the way between you and that coveted California online speech therapy job?
The truth is, plenty! How will you react if the HR person throws you some curve balls in the course of the interview? What you may not realize is that for you the interview is just another step on the path to being hired. However, for many interviewers, it’s an opportunity to narrow down the field with tough, uncomfortable questions. What can you do? Be prepared!
1. How much do you think you are worth?
Everyone in business knows that he/she who first gives the salary a number loses. As a potential employee, what do you think will happen if you ask for less than the boss was willing to give? You guessed it; you’ll probably get exactly what you asked for! Instead of responding with a number, ask for a range and then select something above the median.
But it would be preferable to dodge the salary bullet altogether. When the topic comes up in the discussion, just ask for further clarification. Why not respond with, “What an important question. To provide an intelligent response, it would need more information about the job’s responsibilities and the benefits package. No doubt your offer will be competitive.”
2. Looking ahead three to five years, where do you see yourself?
This is a real tough one. It requires prophecy which you probably don’t have! Just be careful not trip over your own feet by answering something like, “How do I know,” or “Not something I have to give much thought to.” Either response is tantamount to saying, “I have yet to clarify what I am doing with my life,” or “How should I know how long I’ll be working for this company.”
You display more wisdom by responding, “Getting more in touch with my talents, abilities, and goals yielded greater clarity as to what is essential to me. Consequently, I have a strong desire to excel in my California online speech therapy job and would consider it a great privilege to fulfill that ambition with your company.”

3. Describe for me what you consider to be your primary weakness
Be careful with this one and those of its kind. Asking you to discuss your weakness is likely a carefully laid trap. The HR person most probably is offering bait to undermine you, and assistance in further downsizing the shrinking pool of candidates. It is helpful to expect this question, identify a weakness (if like most people you have one) and be prepared to admit it.
But don’t despair. You can dispel this seemingly dark moment with light! A calculated and insightful response has the potential to exhibit your problem-solving ability. Let’s say you are an ambitious person. You might respond with something like, “Sometimes my ambition and excitement overwhelm me to a fault causing me to overcommit.” Then delicately explain how you have learned to organize and prioritize to maximize productivity despite this inclination.
4. You must not have liked something about the last company. What was it?
Just like the solicitation of your weakness, this question may be a trap as well. Perhaps if you didn’t take the bait before, the interviewer is offering you another opportunity to shoot yourself in the foot. Be extremely cautious in your response avoiding at all costs speaking negatively about your current or former boss.
A disparaging reply may be interpreted as to how you feel about employers in general.
Take the high road instead. Say, “Truthfully, while my current job is satisfying, my potential for growth and advancement is limited.” You may add, “What I am seeking are greater opportunity and responsibility.” In addition to accentuating the positive, you build the prospective employer’s confidence in challenging you.
Take the lemons and make lemonade!
Knowing how to handle thorny questions when you interview for your California online speech therapy job can transform a potential bummer into the vehicle that that lands you the dream position. Instead of focusing on the general questions, concentrate on the uncomfortable ones, and prepare clutch responses. Take those sour lemons and make delicious lemonade!
