Here is what you need to know about the second job interview

Many companies hold both a first and a second interview before they select the final candidate for the job. For the second interview you may expect the hiring committee to go into greater detail about your professionalism and personality. They might require you take a personality test and/or solve an assignment.

GET coaching BEFORE THE JOB INTERVIEW

Get individual coaching before your job interview. You can get assistance on how to best describe your skills in words, how to explain gaps your CV, etc.

How to prepare for the second interview

  • Check the framework: What is the agenda? Will you be expected to take a test or do an assignment? Who will be participating in the interview?
  • Use the knowledge you obtained in the first interview, and prepare qualified questions about the job and the assignments.
  • You should expect the hiring committee to go into greater detail with your professionalism and personality. Consider (once more), how to reply to the typical job interview questions. In particular, carefully prepare answers in the areas in which you feel most challenged. You might be applying for a job in which you are going to use a specific IT program that you have never worked with before. Give a clear answer to the question of how you have previously experienced learning new programs, how you usually handle situations in which you are faced with something new. You might also explain what you would find exciting about learning something new - and what motivates you.

Personality tests at the job interview
Some companies ask the candidates to take a personality test for the second interview. The purpose of the test is to check if there is a match between the company and the application in relation to personal skills and preferences.

The company usually will not have an answer key, so reply honestly to the questions. Think of the test as a tool where both you and the company can learn more about you. A test will never stand alone but form the basis of your conversation. If you find that the test shows results that you cannot recognise, you should point that out.

Cases and tasks for the job interview
You may also be asked to solve a case for the second interview. Cases are actual, realistic assignments based on the activities of the company and related to the job you apply for.
A case can be both oral, written and with or without preparation.
When you present your assignment, you should also explain your method and how you arrived at the result. The purpose of a case is to give the hiring committee insight into how you solve and present the solution to an actual problem, and it gives more insight into your professionalism.

References
You may be asked for references at the job interview. A reference may be a former leader or colleague that you know will talk positively about you. Always contact your reference before you provide their name and telephone number to your potential new employer. Tell your reference which job you have applied for and which assignments you are going to have so that your reference is well prepared, if they are contacted.
