I have a second interview with HR and need some advice. The first interview was with 2 hiring managers in research and development and went well. They want to expand their international projects, and I think I'm the only international candidate (American in Germany). They said they had 2 other candidates and apparently couldn't decide between us, so now HR is supposed to help "give an opinion". (I actually don't know if all 3 of us got 2nd interviews.)
So here are my questions for any HR reps:
1) If the department couldn't make a decision based on our research backgrounds, what is HR looking for?
2) How technical can I be when I describe my research? Can I expect HR to know something about the projects in the department or should I describe my scientific research in very general terms?
3) I desperately want this job. How can I best sell myself to HR folks?
Thanks! |

This way, HR has to pass you on to the managers because they cannot handle your questions themselves.
