Don,
Thanks for the advice. The dinner interview went great and I was able
to secure a second interview. The second interview is with 4 people, 30
mins each, back to back along with having lunch in their cafeteria and
touring one of their plants with all the other 2nd interview candidates.
I have already asked for, and received, the names and titles of those
interviewing, do you have any other advice on how to handle this last
round?
Thanks again for being so helpful.
Ben

Hi Ben,
Congratulations on making it this far – you are doing well.
They may even have a third round of interviews with some VPs – it just
depends.
They definitely see something they like. Make sure you let them know you
have a plan for your new job and that you have been doing your homework.
Let them know you are serious about this job. At this point, they are
starting to believe you have something to offer. Let them know you are
a team player, a leader, a teacher, and back it up with real examples
from your past. You may not realize it, but in one way or another, you
have been all three of these, but if it’s not obvious to you, dig deep
and you will something.
Remember, they also trust the judgment of the people you have already
interviewed with, but just want to see for themselves what you are made
of. Plus, they may want to dig deeper into what your own plans are for
the job. How are you going to do it? How are you going to overcome any
hurdles. How do you know when you have been successful? Polish up on
questions like that and you’ll be set.
Also, make sure the answers you have given previously are consistent
with your answers for the second interview so you don’t create any
contradictions.
Give yourself that extra edge and stand out by giving a firm handshake
to everyone you meet and look him/her in the eye. Smile with a big grin
and show your teeth. Showing your teeth is the ultimate smile and is the
best and most exciting way to introduce yourself. Plus, your image will
last longer in their minds.
I wish you all the best and hope you get the job. Please let me know if
you have any further questions.
Best regards,
Don
