How do you organize a large number of interviews?
Good evening. I plan to look for a new job and, because. There are many vacancies and opportunities, but not much time - I wondered how to organize a large number of interviews in a short time. Because I want to choose the best position - I assume that you need to appoint the most desirable companies first and in descending order. I don’t want to reject offers if there is an opportunity to get a better one and that kind.
And how is your process of finding a new job structured when there are a lot of options on the list?

I was looking for a job this fall)
I can say that if you have been interviewing for a long time, then it’s better not to start with companies that you really want to get into, because you can be smart, but swim on a number of simple questions simply because you didn’t refresh your memory and this will bring down the good impression. The fashion for a standard set of questions is changing, what was asked 5 years ago may not be asked now, but at the same time come up with new questions from the standard list. I was sure that they would ask something from serious topics, but they asked something completely different and simple, and you had to quickly strain and remember to answer)
I had a couple of days when I had two hrs and two techs in a row and it was a huge mistake - it's very exhausting. It is better to plan no more than one technical security per day or take a break of at least 2 hours between them, and preferably more.
At a pre-screening / hr interview, they very often say - yes, we will call for a maximum of half an hour - do not believe it)) This calmly stretches for an hour or more if the conversation does not go according to the template.
As a result, I can say that it is important to remember your vitality and not try to go through all the security services at once, it is important to stay with a fresh head and leave time to work through all the questions that you have failed, some of them may take the whole evening)
Good luck in your search)
upd . It would be nice to make a list of standard questions, I had these:
1) location of the office
2) does the company provide equipment
3) are there overtimes and are they paid, what is the pace of work and deadlines
4) how is cooperation formalized and conducted, when to sign a contract
5) how many months is the test
6) the composition of the team, who manages it
7 ) the subject of the project
8) technologies, which are the main ones, which are secondary
9) what development and communication tools are used (a surprise with Windows, a ban on licensed software and other nonsense can come out)
10) why do you need English (only technical, only correspondence or full-fledged one-to-one communication)
Some of these questions helped to avoid disappointments and wasted time
1. Make a sign with the company name, address, contact persons and a link to the vacancy.
2. Schedule no more than 2 interviews a day, afternoon and evening, with at least a few hours between them.
3. In the tablet, indicate each interview passed, what you learned there and your impression.
4. Having received a feedback, point to the sign.
I didn't quite understand the question.
Let's say you are a developer at some stack of a certain level. You watch profile conferences, look through vacancies from time to time (to know the main players on your stack, and keep your stack up to date).
If some companies are of interest to you, then you look through them more carefully: (what they do, what stack, what the financial condition of the company, you can even ask current employees a little).
As a result, a list of companies appears (usually 4-5 pieces) that are of interest to you, since they have a cool stack, convenient location, or they pay significantly higher, and similar features that are important to you.
You prepare for the interview, and then you start talking to them. Some companies will turn out to be uninteresting to you, some will seem uninteresting to you for reasons that you did not understand during the research.
As a result, either you will get an offer to the company that you want, or everyone will not suit you, and you will understand that so far it’s not bad at the current place (this also often happens when a person underestimates his place and overestimates other places).
___
Well, either you can open your resume, catch offers and interesting ones to look through carefully and write off if you are interested.
___
The very idea that you have to go through a bunch of interviews suggests that you didn’t plan your career well and ended up in an asshole when you need to catch public offers from the market, and not move through contacts.
4 stages:
1. Study of requirements and interviews: 30%
2. Attempts to target offices: 1-3pcs.
3. Fail-over: 30%
4. Finishing education.
GOTO 1
Read . If you get what is written, then the question will disappear by itself - in your field of vision there will be from 0 to 1 vacancy that really needs to be considered.
