COMMON JOB INTERVIEW MISTAKES: WHAT NOT TO SAY OR DO

It's true that a jobseeker needs to stand out from the crowd-but there are good and bad ways to do that! Having all the right credentials and experience doesn't count for much if a candidate comes off as unprepared, unmotivated, and unprofessional in an interview. This video shows how to avoid that fate with concrete advice from experts, eye-catching graphics that reinforce core concepts, and clear-cut dramatizations that illustrate interview dos and don'ts. For newcomers to the job market, a firm grasp of the "don'ts" definitely comes in handy-after all, young people may not realize they should turn off their cell phones before an interview or refrain from asking too early about the position's salary. From tips on ensuring punctuality to strategies for giving the most positive, team-oriented impression possible, this is a first-rate informational resource for employment counseling and business education.

DISABILITIES AT WORK: SUCCESSFUL JOB HUNTING FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES - JOB INTERVIEW ESSENTIALS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

Job interviews are stressful for everybody, and maybe even more so for people with disabilities. But they don't have to be. This video shows how to turn an interview into a self-selling opportunity that focuses on what a disabled candidate can do, no matter how obvious his or her physical limitations might be. Offering detailed pointers on preparing for an interview, including ways to project confidence and a positive attitude, the program also suggests approaching an interview as a chance to dispel stereotypes and improve a prospective employer's understanding of disabilities. Ways to respond effectively to frequently asked questions-some appropriate, some illegal, all of them challenging-are presented along with a helpful discussion of how to follow up after an interview.

DISABILITIES AT WORK: SUCCESSFUL JOB HUNTING FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES - SMART RESUMES AND APPLICATIONS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

A resume must be impressive. But for people with disabilities, there's always an extra concern. At what stage of the process should the disability be mentioned-in the resume? On an application?

While there's no easy answer, this video helps job seekers sift through the many challenges and decisions of completing resumes, cover letters, references, and applications. Illustrating the differences between chronological, functional, and combination resumes, as well as the specific uses of a targeted resume, the program explains why a candidate with a disability might choose one type or another and explores ways to submit an application package that is positive, professional, and proactive.

JOB SEARCH: BUSTING THE MYTHS

In this program we flip seven of the most commonly held job search myths on their heads. We start by smashing the misconceptions that sending out covering letters and resumes will get you an interview, all jobs are advertised, and inexperienced job seekers or frequent job changers miss out on jobs. Then we dispel the myths that the most qualified applicants always get the best jobs, you should take the first job you are offered, always stick to the job you have, and employers dismiss job seekers who market themselves. Viewers will discover practical strategies to challenge and overcome these pervasive myths.

    MAKING A GOOD IMPRESSION: RESUMES, INTERVIEWS AND APPEARANCE

    In a fast-paced world of emails and text messaging, it's easy for young people to forget the importance of concise business writing with a courteous presentation. Indeed, many teens may not realize that the 'laid-back' communication style that is common at school is far from appropriate in the world of work. This program brings viewers back to basics: how to write a proper resume, what to wear on a job interview, and how to behave appropriately in the workplace. Viewers will enjoy a series of dramatic (and sometimes comical) vignettes that identify what is-and is not-proper workplace behavior. Special emphasis is given to the importance of good speaking and writing skills. Treating bosses and colleagues with due respect is also presented as a crucial part of being a successful employee.
