Interview just like public speaking can sent butterflies to your stomach. If it is your first time to be interviewed, you load up on advice on how to present yourself during the interview to get hired. Here are some quick tips to remember during your first, second or more interviews.
- Put your best foot forward: If you are at the final interview and you feel the job is yours, avoid malcontent. That is, speaking evil of other people you are formerly connected with, like your hated school teacher.
You should always put yourself in good light. Backstabbing would reflect a negative side of you. Remember that everybody is be respected even if you do not like them.
- Cognise body and verbal language: you could say something and act another. Interviewers are not only listening to what you are saying put also looking at how you behave.
Do you have disturbing mannerisms while talking? Try a mock interview at home and see how look; when something is awful, you can control it and practice a more pleasant pose.
- And don't forget about that eye contact--the interviewer is talking to you so stop looking sideways and on the ceiling. If eye contact can get all jittery, just make sure you look at your interviewer once in a while. If not the eyes then the mouth or shoulder, as long as you look at your interviewer at face level.
And also avoiding eye contact could mean dishonesty, disinterest and lack of self-confidence.
- Prepare anecdotes that make you shine: You cannot possibly prepare for all the questions to be asked during the interview so set up stories, real stories, or happenings in your life that show your talents or you efficiency in dealing with different often difficult things.
More often than not, you will be asked to share one difficult situation in your life and how you handled it. Remember that if a difficult situation defeated you that interviewer might think that because you weren't able to handle a difficult personal situation, a difficult situation at work won't be handled by you at all. Come on, everybody is strong enough
- Be positive about negative things. Interviews will ask about your vulnerability. Rather than end these things in a sad note add up that there is a bright future ahead and that bad experiences made you stronger.
So as closing before you go for your interview, remember to put your best foot forward, cognizant body language with your answers, maintain comfortable eye contact, reveal the best in your and be positive.
