Telecom Jobs With A (job search) European Angle

By Murriano

 All industry types are strictly related to telco skills and job positions.

telcojobs.eu is the result of a collaboration between the sites owner, internet entrepreneur Eammon Murray, based out of Ireland and a job board software development company http://www.xpandedmedia.com located in Los Angeles, California.

“A number of factors will make this site very strong from the get-go” says Benjamin Hurley, Director of xpandedmedia.com, “The domain name is exclusive and self explanatory. Any internet marketing proffesional out there will know what im talking about. This combined with the gap in the market should propell the site right from the start. I think its high time a job site of this nature came out and we are very happy to have been chosen as the software developer for this project. The choice to go with a .EU domain name made perfect sense to us. You have a strong idea of exacly what the site is about before you even visit it, this will translate into strong organic traffic, coupled with our robust job board solution we are anticipating big things from this site. We wanted to give the site a fully customized look and feel, as well as technical platform that would distibuish it from other sites out there. This is really where we excell, too many job sites are based on a turnkey solution, job seekers are all to wise to this and these sites simply dont perform. We make each site stand out from the crowd, thats the bottom line”

The site boasts a number of unique features that will set it apart from the competition. The domain name and industry niche are the most prevelant. But under the surface there are some nice tools and features that make job search though this site an engaging and intuative experience. Candidates can opt to create a complete in-depth online resume, or alternatively upload their resume documents. Employer profiles can be viewed, complete with contact information, integrated with Google Maps and job listings. RSS job feeds are available for up to the minute job notification, as are email job alerts.

Employers can manage their applicant database and interact with candidates in what is becoming a standard in the web2.0 environment. Candidates in turn can monitor the progress of their applications and status of their resume submission though their candidate account.

Employers will be assured to recieve applications from applicants located within the EU, making candidate sourcing more targeted and cost effective. Registration requires both candidates and employers to be based in the EU, cutting out redundant applications from the start, where alot of the major job boards fail to do so.

As niche job boards make gains around the world, telcojobs.eu is the result off extensive research, market positioning and a combination of well planned and executed business attributes, combined with a robust and engaging platform, things look set for change for telco recruitment in the European Union.

What Are Your Weaknesses?
By Lucy Evans

 With careful preparation, difficult interview questions can present you with an opportunity to shine under pressure. The important thing with all questions is to show a balanced and considered approach. The following examples will show you some of the pitfalls and ways to avoid them.

Lets start with the classic interview question what are your weaknesses?

There are many variations on this question, common ones include tell me a strength and a weakness and what are your three greatest weakness. To fully prepare you should have three strengths and weaknesses prepared. The worst mistake to make with this question is to claim you dont have any weaknesses. This approach is unlikely to impress the interviewer and will present you in a cowardly light. This question may not be as difficult as it first appears. Sit down and consider what your true work related weaknesses are. When you really think about it this is often quite a long list (I know mine is). The next stage is to think what you have done to overcome these weaknesses in your working life.

Let me give you an example. I personally am very task orientated, I like to get stuck in to the main tasks and often used to ignore the more minor responsibilities. I realized that although I completed my core projects, I had forgotten to do the other tasks I needed to do like complete time sheets and tracking reports. I now make lists of all the tasks I have to complete in a day and make it my priority to complete the list above everything else. This has really helped me to multitask more effectively. When choosing a weakness, look for one that is work related where you can demonstrate that you recognised the weakness, and found an effective method of overcoming it.

Examining your strengths can be just as difficult as your weaknesses. The important thing here is not to appear like an ego-maniac. Consider carefully what your strengths are, then consider the supporting evidence you have for these strengths. Always present a considered argument with supporting evidence.

Why are you leaving your current Job?

The purpose of this question is for the interviewer to discover if you are leaving due to any current difficulties. If you are unhappy where you are, whats to say you will not be unhappy in your new job. Avoid at all costs talking about any problems in your current job and especially any problems with your current management. Highlighting problems, even if they are not your fault will give the impression that you are hard to work with or difficult to manage.

Look for the positive aspects of moving job role both for you and your future employer. Emphasize why you want to move and relate them to the specific company and job. Potential answers include seeking a new challenge, looking for somewhere with training and looking for a role with more opportunities for advancement. Consider how your answer relates not only to you, but how it will benefit your new firm. As an example if you are looking for a role with more possibilities for advancement, you need to emphasize how important work is to you and the effort you are prepared to put in in-order to advance.
