How do you plan your typical day at work?

Question

job interview

Answer 1

I generally just lurch from one crisis to the next but I don't think this will help you get a job.

All planning will take the form - list the jobs to do then prioritise them. Not forgetting to follow this with action.

It is usually better to commit this plan to paper, even if it only on a scrap. How you prioritise will depend to a certain extent on how you work most effectively and the type of work you do. If you truly have a choice in the order to do jobs (i.e. no one obviously has to be completed first) then choose the one which worries you the most to do first. The sense of achievement should spur you on to complete the other tasks.

Don't forget to allow plenty of buffer time to allow for tasks taking longer than planned. If you have time left over this can be used on low priority work.

I think all a prospective employer will be looking for is to see that you have the aptitude to plan successfuly.
