As the law changes on machine safety

As the law changes on machine safety so will the design philosophy required to achieve a safe system. I recently attended a training course on safety PLC"s and was initially shocked that we were moving away from traditional techniques. Over the years I have been involved in designing and commissioning many safety systems, some good some not so.


The Interview'S Three Big Questions

When you interview for a job, it"s natural to wonder about the impression you make on the interviewer. You want to dress right, show respect and prove you"re qualified for the position. You can"t prepare a canned answer for every potential interview question - there are just too many possibilities! The interviewers I know, however, admit that there are really only three big buckets into which most questions fall. Here"s how to prepare for the interviewer"s three big question marks?


You Have Been Invited for an Interview, What are the Questions to Ask the Interviewer?

You know all the answers to the questions an interviewer might ask you in an interview session. Now, the big question is, do you know, what to ask the persons interviewing you? Most job-seekers answer to this question is a big no. They would rather the interviewer to ask the questions than them asking them. It is of paramount importance to ask appropriate questions to the interviewers so that you will be well versed with your prospective employers operations and work procedures.

The interview is generally a two way process. Your prospective employer will want to find out if you are really the person they are seeking for a specific vacancy and you will want to know if the position is right for you. You should ensure that you have enough information to make a good decision as to the vacant position and if it suits you.

The following are questions you may find yourselves asking your future employer.

*

What will be my duties and responsibilities?

You should never take a job which you are not sure about in terms of responsibilities and duties. If you do so, you will find yourselves quite confused about any companyò€™s operations. Other lazy staff may take advantage of your ignorance and exploit you by overworking you with their responsibilities.

*

Where will I fit into this companyò€™s organizational structure?

This is a very important question to ask your interviewer, it leaves no doubt that you are the right person for the job in question.

*

Who will i report to?

*

Who will report to me and how experienced are they?

*

The person Iò€™m reporting to, where does he or she fit in the overall companyò€™s structure?

*

In the first three months, what level of performance is expected of me?

*

Who are the companyò€™s customers?

*

Do I have chances of promotion in this position and what will be my salary, benefits and bonuses?

This question should only be asked after the prospective employer is fully sold to you, do not bring it up in the early stages of the interview, if you do so, you are doomed to fail.

Lastly, do not forget to enquire about when the organization will decide on the appointment. These are some of the questions any job-seeker should arm themselves with when facing the interviewer. Asking these questions will leave a big impression about you, to the prospective employer thus clinching the much needed job for yourself.
