Here are the best 7 Tips for Interview Success
A1. Work on your nonverbal communication skills. Those are as important as the actual words
you speak. Aim to come across as being warm, friendly, approachable, relaxed
and self-confident.
A2. Dress in accordance with the Company’s norms. If
employees dress in a formal way, wear plain, business type clothing. If their
style is more casual and relaxed, dress in more casual clothing, too. However,
you should always look clean, tidy and smell fresh!
A3. Listen carefully to what the interviewer says. Give
them your full and undivided attention. Be attentive to their nonverbal cues,
and communicate that you’ve heard what they have said.
A4. Answer their questions as fully as you can – but
don’t come across as being loud or talkative. Keep to the point, don’t ramble,
and don’t say more than you need to say. However, include examples of your
skills and experience to back up what you’re saying.
A5. Remember that this is a professional setting. You
need to keep a respectful distance. Be alert to appearing too forward and
familiar. Let the interviewer take the initiative when it comes to asking
questions and making conversation.
A6. Only use appropriate language. Don’t swear, use
slang, or any words that have double meanings or sexual connotations.
A7. Have some
knowledge of the Company and the position. Also, prepare a few brief questions
to ask at the end so it looks as if you’re truly interested in the job (but
don’t come across as being desperate to be hired.)
