ELECTRICAL INTERVIEW QUESTIONS & ANSWERS PART-3

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

23. Define the following: Average demand, Maximum demand, Demand factor, Load factor.

• Average Demand: the average power requirement during some specified period of time of considerable duration is called the average demand of installation.
• Maximum Demand: The maximum demand of an installation is defined as the greatest of all the demand, which have occurred during a given period. It is measured accordingly to specifications, over a prescribed time interval during a certain period.
• Demand Factor: It is defined as the ratio of actual maximum demand made by the load to the rating of the connected load.
• Load Factor: It is defined as the ratio of the average power to the maximum demand.

Tip 1: Do your homework

You'll likely be asked difficult questions during the interview. Preparing the list of likely questions in advance will help you easily transition from question to question.

You'll likely be asked difficult questions during the interview. Preparing the list of likely questions in advance will help you easily transition from question to question.


Spend time researching the company. Look at its site to understand its mission statement, product offerings, and management team. A few hours spent researching before your interview can impress the hiring manager greatly. Read the company's annual report (often posted on the site), review the employee's LinkedIn profiles, and search the company on Google News, to see if they've been mentioned in the media lately.

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 2: First impressions

When meeting someone for the first time, we instantaneously make our minds about various aspects of their personality.
Prepare and plan that first impression long before you walk in the door. Continue that excellent impression in the days following, and that job could be yours.
Therefore:
•Never arrive late.
•Use positive body language and turn on your charm right from the start.
•Switch off your mobile before you step into the room.
•Look fabulous; dress sharp and make sure you look your best.
•Start the interview with a handshake; give a nice firm press and then some up and down movement.
•Determine to establish a rapport with the interviewer right from the start.
•Always let the interviewer finish speaking before giving your response.

•Express yourself fluently with clarity and precision.

Tip 3: The “Hidden” Job Market

Many of us don’t recognize that hidden job market is a huge one and accounts for 2/3 of total job demand from enterprises. This means that if you know how to exploit a hidden job market, you can increase your chance of getting the job up to 300%.

In this section, the author shares his experience and useful tips to exploit hidden job market.

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 4: Overcome “job interview nervous“


Job interview nervous is one of the first reasons why you fail in job interviews.

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 5: Do-It-Yourself Interviewing Practice

There are a number of ways to prepare for an interview at home without the help of a professional career counselor or coach or a fee-based service.

You can practice interviews all by yourself or recruit friends and family to assist you.

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 6: Tailor your story to the job

Applying your story to a specific employer or job is the next step. Lining up the stories that apply to the opportunity at hand is critical. Put yourself in the interviewer’s shoes and pose the questions you would ask. Which stories are relevant to this job interview? Think about personal stories that show how you handled change, made choices under pressure, or learned lessons from mistakes and failures. You should also think about stories you can tell in the interview that reveal your skill set.


Learning and appreciating your story is a prerequisite to any interview process. Don’t rely on your ability to think on your feet. Anticipate the questions and have answers at the ready. In the end, this is about making a great and memorable impression that demonstrates competency and ability.

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 7: Dress for Success


Plan out a wardrobe that fits the organization and its culture, striving for the most professional appearance you can accomplish. Remember that it's always better to be overdressed than under --and to wear clothing that fits and is clean and pressed. Keep accessories and jewelry to a minimum. Try not to smoke or eat right before the interview --and if possible, brush your teeth or use mouthwash.

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 8: Arrive on Time for the Interview --and Prepared for Success

There is no excuse for ever arriving late for an interview --other than some sort of disaster. Strive to arrive about 15 minutes before your scheduled interview to complete additional paperwork and allow yourself time to get settled. Arriving a bit early is also a chance to observe the dynamics of the workplace.

The day before the interview, pack up extra copies of your resume or CV and reference list. If you have a portfolio or samples of your work, bring those along too. Finally, remember to pack several pens and a pad of paper to jot notes.

Finally, as you get to the offices, shut off your cell phone. (And if you were chewing gum, get rid of it.)

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 9: Focus more on what you can do for the company, rather than what they can do for you
At the beginning of the job interview process, someone has to assume the role of the seller, and someone has to be the buyer.
You're the seller at this early stage of the process.
As the interview progresses you will eventually be asked:Do you have any questions for us?
It’s a bad idea to say,no, I can’t think of anything.It’s also a bad idea to have a grocery list of interview questions a mile long.
Appropriate Job Interview Questions to Ask Your Interviewers
•How would you describe a typical day in this position?
•In my first 90 days on the job, what’s my first priority?
•What is one of the most difficult challenges facing your department?
•Is this a new position, or am I replacing someone?
•What’s the company’s strategy for generating new business?

•What is your management style like?

PKR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING

Tip 10: Bring examples of your work

Use the power of the printed word to your advantage. As an executive recruiter, I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been called by a hiring manager after an interview, and told how impressed they were with one of my candidates who brought examples of their work.
Most job seekers fail to do this in preparing for a job interview. This one job interview tip alone will set you apart from other candidates.
Idea: Some job seekers bring a copy of their most recent written evaluation to the interview. Obviously, you should only do this if your evaluation is outstanding.
The power of the printed word applies here as well. If you share your strengths with your interviewers, it's duly noted. If one of your bosses said those same things about you...it's gospel.

Another great example of your work is any chart or graph that illustrates specifically how you saved the company time or money...or how you made the company money.

Tip 11: Ask questions


Do not leave the interview without ensuring that you know all that you want to know about the position. Once the interview is over, your chance to have important questions answered has ended. Asking questions also can show that you are interested in the job. Be specific with your questions. Ask about the company and the industry. Avoid asking personal questions of the interviewer and avoid asking questions pertaining to politics, religion and the like.

Tip 12: Follow up and send a thank-you note

Following up after an interview can help you make a lasting impression and set you apart from the crowd.

Philip Farina, CPP, a security career expert at Manta Security Management Recruiters, says: "Send both an email as well as a hard-copy thank-you note, expressing excitement, qualifications and further interest in the position. Invite the hiring manager to contact you for additional information. This is also an excellent time to send a strategic follow-up letter of interest."
