NextJob101.com Debuts Today
New video-based website helps job seekers sharpen interview skills.
Troy, Mich., November 27, 2007 – NextJob101.com, a new video-based website focused on helping job hunters improve their interview skills, makes its public debut today. The career site will feature instructional on-demand videos, an interactive career blog and a job hunters’ forum. Offering opportunities to learn from peers and experts, the site is designed to assist anyone seeking a better job, including individuals searching for their next career position; anyone laid off or downsized; and individuals who find themselves under-employed and looking for something better.

NextJob101.com conducted 1000's of interviews and compiled the best and worst answers to common interview questions. With firsthand knowledge of how employers react to typical answers, NextJob101 offers subscribers a way to get ahead of the crowd and learn from online video instruction featuring real-life interview situations.

“When a good candidate loses an opportunity, it’s usually because of a poor interview performance rather than a lack of skills or qualifications” said Vicki Herrod, NextJob101 president. “We’ve got a remedy for that. NextJob101.com takes the mystery out of the interview process, and gives people the skills and confidence they need to get the jobs they want.”

Herrod is a recruiting and placement professional with almost 25 years of experience in helping clients successfully land new jobs. She founded NextJob101 based on her observations of common mistakes, and a belief that ANY job seeker can gain a competitive edge by learning how to avoid those, and properly prepare for an interview. On the website, subscribers will gain those skills by watching real examples of some of the most common answers, tips on how to do better, and actual examples of what those better answers might look like.

NextJob101 tackles a myriad of interview questions, including:
  • What is your biggest weakness?
  • What are your reasons for leaving your current position?
  • What are your salary expectations?
  • Why should we hire you?
A three-month membership subscription to NextJob101 is $29.95 and includes unlimited access to training videos that can be viewed on-demand; access to the NextJob101 blog where members can see what’s on the minds of some of the most experienced interviewers and what the hottest job search issues are; and admittance to the NextJob101 forum where members can share thoughts, opinions, questions and concerns with other job seekers by participating in ongoing forum discussions.

Our Founder:
Vicki Herrod
Vicki Herrod, president and founder of NextJob101, is an employment industry expert with almost 25 years of expertise. Her experience spans nearly all aspects of the employment industry, from managing a light-industrial temporary service; to an executive role, as vice president at a $20 billion global placement firm with 7,000 offices in over 60 countries; and her current role as chief executive officer for a retained executive search firm.

With the consistent theme of high performance and measured results, Vicki has produced outstanding, longevity-based client relationships with many Fortune 500 and entrepreneurial corporations alike. She did it by helping hundreds of excellent companies find truly outstanding talent.

Herrod created NextJob101in order to help each job seeker better present themselves to prospective employers. Throughout her career, Vicki recognized that people — no matter what their career level, education or socio-economic background — shared many of the same difficulties interviewing for their next job or career position. Perhaps they had not interviewed for many years and were out of practice; or, perhaps they had lost confidence after an unexpected job loss and were unable to present their capabilities in a way that delivered the right message. Maybe they were nervous, unprepared or simply the victim of bad advice.

“It seems that all too often, people’s difficulties with interviewing bury their personal and professional strengths,” said Herrod. “And the interview is such a crucial moment in the job hunt. If you can’t make those strengths shine during your interview, the prospective employer is going to overlook you as a candidate.

Knowing from personal experience that people truly need valuable interviewing advice, Herrod developed NextJob101 as a unique, useful and exciting new tool for job seekers — a contemporary, real and inviting way to prepare for interviews and to get the job.
