Successful in a Job Interview.
In a job interview
The interviewers have to select the best out of lot. To be among the best, the job seeker should observe certain rules and etiquette in his job interview. First of all, you should dress appropriately. This means wearing a formal dress, as is usual in a Particular Country. Do not wear casual student dressing. But, on the other hand, do not overdress. If you are not sir about the appropriate formal dress for the organization you are seeking a job in, you can have some idea about it some days before the interview by a sort of spying on the dress of the employees there. Secondly, pay attention your grooming, that means you take care that you do not have untidy hair, offensive odor of the body, dandruff, unsigned show, a hanging hem, stems on your tie, excessive make-up or perfume, a sloppy job of shaving. Thirdly, look alert, poised and friendly. Your interviewer may look into the waiting room and call your name, intending to get a first impression of your behavior.
So, don’t slouch in your chair in the waiting room, or doze or be lost in the pages of a magazine, or look up with an annoyed “huh”? But do get up promptly and walk briskly toward him or her. Smile, look directly at that person and extend your hand to shake his or hers, saying. “I’m Jonson Walken. Thank you for seeing me today.” And if handshake with an opposite sex is not the usual custom, greet her in the religious way that is in vogue in the country, and thank her. But you may be called from the waiting room by a person other than an interviewer. If permitted, enter with a good, friendly smile with confident steps neither too quick nor slow, and have a quick but gentle look at the members of the board. When near enough greet them in the way usual in the country. Do not sit down until asked. While sitting down say, “Thank you all for seeing me today.” Fourthly, expect to make a little small talk. The interviewer may start a small talk to check your ability to be politely sociable. He may want to chat about the weather for a few minutes. Do so, but do not drug it out. As soon as you get a signal to talk about the job, be ready to get down to business. Fifthly, you should rehearse the questions and answers some days before the interview__ questions that are usually asked in most interviews. For example, one question may be, “Tell me about yourself”. In answer, give a brief summary of your life and work experience.
Another question may follow, “Why did you leave your last job?” Never badmouth anyone in answering this question__ anyone of your organization you worked for, but say that you left in order to seek greater responsibilities or challenges. Be positive, not negative. Then, if asked about your strengths and weaknesses, mention your strong points especially those which are relevant for the job you are seeking. About your weakness, do not say that you do not have any but mention one or two that will not affect your work efficiency. “Why should we hire you?” may be another question. In answer, tell the recruiter the company is the one you would like to work for, and that your research and the company’s needs exactly match, you believe. There may be another question like, “do you have any question?” Ask a question or two about the specific aspects of the job. But do not ask about your salary, or your vacation, if they are not too important for you. There will be time enough to discuss them later. Today your task is to demonstrate what a good employee you would be. Sixthly, send a thank you note to the interviewer one or two days after the interview. In it thank the interviewer for seeing you, reaffirm your interest in the job and mention again why you think you are the best candidate for it. Make the note courteous, business like and brief__ just a paragraph or two. If the interviewer is wavering between several equally qualified candidates, such a note could tip the scales in your favors.
