Advice when a Job Interview
The very first step that an applicant has successfully completed was sending your application and passing the selection process of the company.
The second step in having the job is meeting the potential employer for an interview.
The company got the job application through a number of sources that can be from an advertisement which was posted, a referral from a friend or a headhunter, or by a person who simply submitted an application by logging on the company’s website.
Here are some suggestions that will help in having a successful interview;
• Before going to a job interview, it is advisable to do some research about the company you are applying to.
• It can also be best to practice with a family member or friend model up questions that the company will probably ask so you do not choke during the real interview.
• When you go searching for an interview, it is advisable to always arrive 10 to 15 minutes ahead of time. This shows organisations that the person is punctual and serves as a good attribute in a potential employee.
• When appointment a company, you need to bring an extra copy of the resume and other documents that are needed if asked certain questions. A good example is architects and photographers who are professionals in the individual fields who have a portfolio of the works done which may impress the interviewer.
• It is always best to dress properly. This shows the employer sincerity on the part of the applicant applying for the job. One must have finger-nails and hair well groomed for the interview. The outfit worn should be professional. This would mean that shoes must be used to match the outfit. If you typically wear a lot of jewelry, it is advisable to remove and tone it down for the interview.
• When you are in front of the employer, smile and greet the interviewer with a firm (but not bone crushing) handshake which is always a good start to get the interview moving.
• During the course of the job interview, listen very well to the questions asked. Each must be answered truthfully and confidently to be able to sell yourself to the potential employer.
• Afterwards, the applicant should thank the recruiter for the time that was given to meet for the interview.
