First for a while after just finished uni however,

What the hell are differentiators??
The interview focuses on specific areas that we have identified as essential to being successful in the role we are recruiting for. The questions will be based on ‘differentiators’, which are behaviours that underpin effective performance.



During the interview we will be asking you for specific examples of how you have demonstrated your approach in past situations, so please try to think of examples of ‘what you did do’, rather than ‘what you would do’.

I get the definition but not sure I understand how these would translate into questions I may be asked anyone any ideas??

what is the salary for uni leaver these days mate?
Report SPYKES • June 6, 2014 6:28 PM BST
It is nt even a graduate job but i'd imagine for this sales position 17k in the NW btw.

Graduate jobs anything from 17-whatever depending where and what degree and from where.

Mine is nt a great degree from not such a great uni

I believe the differentiators will be Small, Medium and Large. What you would do is get them to go large.

What it means I imagine is what qualities you possess that will set you apart from other candidates.  It is computer generated wording copied from the back of an office cliches handbook.

It's to make sure you are climbing the right ladder with a clear blue sky of a mind and reading from the same page.
That's how my boss speaks.

Did you have any summer jobs, or did Daddy pay for your gap year?

During the interview we will be asking you for specific examples of how you have demonstrated your approach in past situations, so please try to think of examples of ‘what you did do’, rather than ‘what you would do’.
Have you any interests, hobbies, sports that require a bit of effort?  Or do you like to walk, read, and socialise?

My gosh what a crappy country this is when people are excited  and
relieved just to get an interview. These companies are total cu++s
This is what a person should say in a well run country..Yes I am looking
for a job, I can start on monday , if you tell me what .needs done I will
do it and then go home andgive it no more thought. Don.t expect me to
have any other interest, the job dosn't pay enough.

It is very difficult for young people today, they have no power, its
the w+++ers doing the interview have an unlimitsd labor supply
