Job Interview Answer ‘What Do You Think of Your Previous Boss?’

By Tabitha Makumi
For most people, bosses are not their best friends.  You can count yourself lucky if you have one who you can get along with without too much effort.  On the other hand you can have one who is pretty wacko, the one who enters the office and everyone goes still, people seem to stop breathing and you can hear a pin drop.
‘What happens when you attend an interview and you are told to describe your last boss?’
Here is a bad answer which you will be tempted to give.
Oh my God! He was a nutcase, completely incompetent, and a nightmare to work with, which is why I’ve decided to move on to another job. He drove everyone nuts in the office and we all hated him except that we didn’t say it to his face. Phew, I am just glad to e out of there.
While this may be the truth, you don’t want it out there. Even if you disliked your boss, don’t say so. Remember,  If you get the job, the person interviewing you will someday be your previous boss. The last thing they want is to hire someone who they know is going to badmouth them some day. Instead of trashing your former employer, stay positive and focus on what you learned from him no matter how awful he really was.

Never Bad Mouth Your Previous Boss in a Job Interview.

For example, a  Human Resource Officer at Corporate Staffing Service told me about this twenty five year old guy he interviewed just the other day and the job candidate couldn’t stop raving about how she hated her boss and how horrible the last company she worked for was.
Unfortunately for her, that company happened to be one of the biggest clients for the Westlands based recruitment agency….Imagine that! Too bad for the candidate.
Here is a sample of a good answer
“My last boss taught me the importance of time management—he didn’t pull any punches, and was extremely deadline-driven. His no-nonsense attitude pushed me to work harder, and to meet deadlines I never even thought were possible.”
Or
I learned a lot about organization from my last boss. I’ve always been an organized person, but I learned new ways to organize and mobilize the staff from him, which was very valuable for my management abilities.

Sample Cover Letter For Driver Job Vacancies

By Angela Wahome,
Drivers work in many capacities including driving buses, trucks and personal vehicles. Therefore a driver needs to have some additional skills apart from only being able to drive a vehicle. These skills and experience need to be specified in a cover letter when a driver is applying for a job.
While writing your cover letter for driver’s CV, keep in mind that there are different kinds of driving jobs available and you have to fit your cover letter to show that you suit the specific to the needs of the employer.
Find below an example of such a letter.
Mr. Joe Njoroge,
P.O. Box 1234-0020,
Nairobi,
20th September, 2013.
Human Resource Manager,
Acme Logistics and Deliveries,
P.O. Box 5678-0030,
Nairobi.
Dear Mrs. Shitandi,
RE: APPLICATION FOR THE POST OF DRIVER

Illustration: Commercial Drivers should Have a BCE Driving License.

As a professional driver for over 7 years, I am interested in applying for the position of a Delivery Driver at Acme Logistics and Deliveries. I understand that you are looking for someone who has experience in driving both heavy and light vehicles which I have done in the past in the past having driven, pickups, lorries and recently have taken the role of being the personal driver to the Managing Director, as well as driving the company vehicle to do urgent deliveries for the clients that require supplies of our products on a weekly basis.
As a delivery driver I am familiar with Nairobi and its environs, can read GPRS as well as maps. I also serve the family of the Director and I am regularly given various tasks which include taking their vehicle for service. My experience as a mechanic has enabled me to ensure that services are done well for all the vehicles. My regular duties both for the company and the Directors family, have enabled me to drive all the sizes vehicles regularly including various sizes of pickups, lorries and tankers. For the Director, I work a lot like a personal assistant/messenger helping her carry out work that includes office errands as well as a helping them sort out a lot of domestic issues. Recently I was given the responsibility of finding a workshop to refurbish all their furniture in the house. They also did the parquet wood floor sanding and re-vanishing in all the rooms.
Therefore, I understand that a driver’s is not just driving the vehicle but there are other tasks that he has to perform. I understand the need for providing supportive services for unloading and loading merchandise from a truck and have the capability to lift heavy weight effectively.
I am convinced that I am the best candidate for this position as I have all the prerequisites that you have supplied in the job description. Kindly find attached my CV and thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Kind regards,
(Signed)
Joe Njoroge

4 Personal Branding Errors To Avoid In Job Search

By Carol Musyoka,
Most of our universities are NOT preparing their fourth year classes for the recruitment. They are throwing the graduates out to the job recruitment sharks and hoping that they will sink or swim. Most fresh university graduates undergo less than pleasant interviews, and sometimes fill like giving up when they do not get job offers. Some feel they have fought the good fight, finished the race but are still struggling to keep the faith.
The solution is simple as pie: universities should link up with organisations in the public and private sector and get their human resource teams to come and run a mandatory minimum of five hours course for the final year students on how to prepare yourself for the job market. It will be a win-win scenario for both parties: for the universities they will get actual practitioners who will provide valuable education on exactly what it is they are looking for while for the organisations they will get a chance to begin to influence the kind of output that is being generated by the institutions as it will be made fit for interviewing purpose.
Based on the feedback I received, I realised that some of the recruitment train smashes occur even before the actual interview takes place.
1. A good place to begin would be your email address. For purposes of your CV please get a simple professional private email address that reflects your name and not your flavour. For instance Mary.Kerubo@yahoo.com or MKerubo@gmail.com is pretty straightforward. Missbabes@yahoo.com or peremende@gmail.com is…well nothing short of very unserious. Most email addresses are free and cost just a few minutes of your precious time.
2. Always assume that the recruiters will do a background check on you if they like what they see on your CV. The first point of entry will be to “Google” your name. It would be advisable to “Google” your own name and see what turns up in the search. It is noteworthy that the electronic age we live in ensures that even criminal or civil cases that we may have been involved in and that may have been published either in the media or in law reports will appear in a Google search.

How good is your online brand

Your Facebook profile or Twitter posts will also appear in a Google search and be under no illusion that a recruiter will not proceed to view your Facebook page or Twitter profile both of which are open to the public (unless you have put in privacy settings). So all those posts of the last all night drinking binge that you took part in will show up to a nosy recruiter doing due diligence.
This would be a good time to “untag” yourself from any photos which you have been tagged in including those where you were member number five at a strip poker game.
On that note, any abusive, foul mouthed tweets that you may have posted regarding any topical issue should be deleted particularly where you may have ranted and raved about the very organisation that you are applying to work in or its affiliate.
3. Telephone Contacts- If you have put your telephone number on your CV and are expecting recruiters to call you, for the love of God and country do not have some popular rap, genge, gospel, mugithi mix, ramogi special ringtone running off your mobile phone. Why? Well, I understand that you feel it shows your unique music tastes to which you are entitled, but it does not reflect the professional side that is required to be seen during a recruitment process.
Always assume that you are trying to woo a partner (employer) and just like in any romantic liaison, you only show your best side during the first couple of dates.
Now in the event that you do get past the due diligence as described above and get called to an interview, other than what I indicated in last week’s column,
4. Confidentiality- One should also be very careful not to reveal insider information about their current employer. So if an interviewer asks something along the lines of “What is your current employer’s strategy regarding customer acquisition in Nyeri County?” you should not have a problem telling the interviewer that it’s not in your best interests to reveal internal company information due to the confidentiality clause in your employment contract.
Yes, you are entitled to push back in an interview if you feel that the questions are infringing on confidentiality or becoming too personalised beyond the professional realm (questions along tribal or racial lines fall into this category).
Talking about the competition during an interview whether it is an organisation or an individual is highly unprofessional. But as I concluded last week, common sense good people, is not common to everyone.
