Tips for a Fanstastic Interview

Getting an interview is like almost getting the job. If you went through the initial interview well, don't be lax on the final interview. In every interview, you should be well prepared. Here are some tips for get a fantastic interview and grab that job offer.


Prepare and over-prepare. When you go into an interview. It is assumed you are prepared. you shuold be well-dressed and groom. That goes to say you do not have spinach between your teeth and you have combed your hair properly. More than that, being over-prepared means you have anticipated what interview questions will be asked and you have thought about your answers. Role play your responses. Analyze your answers. Be critical. Repeat your answers until it comes naturally to you. Take a look at the mirror: do look like you have memorized your lines? repeat your best responses until they are entirely natural, until they simply roll off your tongue with the apparent spontaneity that comes only with successive repetition.


Be clear on what you want to achieve. Be well aware of what you have written in your resume. Hiring managers or recruitment people will ask you about it so be clear about your objective. There is little room in the market for an applicant who is willing to take anything or any position. The end story will be that s/he will get nothing.


Match resume records with your interview claims. It would be nice to hint your claims or interview responses to your resume--but do it subtly. Like if you have take special courses or certification, you may say "As I was taking my certification in payroll accounting..."


Be clear about your stength and describe your weakness as strength. When interview asked about your weakness, they either want to test your arrgance ('I don't any weakness) or want to know if you know yourself (Well, I never thought about that). Phrase your weakness as a stregnth, like 'I used to do things by the last minute but I realized scheduling or doing them in advance makes more sense.'

You should well prepared to any interview. It pays to be prepared--especially when you get the job you are applying for.
