11 Tips To Easily Pass A Job Interview

The Job interview is usually the final step on the way to getting a new job, where all the details of a future cooperation are discussed.

 If the employer is interested in your CV, you will be contacted for further instructions.

 In case you pass a job interview successfully, you will be offered the post.

The competition in the labour market is huge and it is possible that several candidates pretend to one vacancy and the employer will select the most perspective and confident job seeker.

In order to be selected, you need to prove that you will be able to bring success and profit to the company. The employers do emphasize on the previous work experience and the preparedness of a candidate for the interview.

Job interview is rather a stressful situation for any job seeker and unnecessary excitement can mess everything up.

That is why you should pay attention to some few tips that may help increase your chances:

  1.   Be nice at the first look. Clothing can tell a lot about the candidate.

Nice look is a measure of respect to the employer.

 It is unlikely that you will be offered a good post in a reputable company if the first impression is spoiled with dirty shoes or greasy hair.

Small drawbacks will always be seen.

2. The most suitable is the classic style of clothing.

Do not wear track suit and jeans even there are no strict requirements to the dress code in the company.

 Avoid bright colours and too expensive accessories. Choose closed toe shoes with a backdrop.
   
3. Be punctual. Always come for an interview a few minutes early.

Being late often motivates the employer to strike out the name of a person from the list of candidates.

 4. Do not forget to switch off the mobile phone.

5. Be attentive. Listen carefully and ask to repeat the question if you do not understand it.

6. Answer confidently and concisely, avoid monosyllabic and incomprehensible answers ("yes/no", "probably", "not quite sure" etc.). Remember about the manners and the etiquette of communication.
   
One of the most difficult and tricky questions is "Tell me a little about yourself." Often the answer decides the further future of a candidate.

 Describe briefly your autobiography, focus on the information about work experience, education, the reasons for dismissal and the responsibilities that you have performed.

Do not criticize your previous colleagues and former directors.
  
7. Do not be afraid to promote yourself as a good specialist: tell about your personal qualities, advantages and professional achievements.

Emphasize that the commitment to the continuing professional development is very important and you will always be ready to attend training courses that will contribute to your self-education.

8. Do not be surprised if the employer asks about your marital status and children.

It is significant information for an experienced director that helps determine if the post is suitable for you.

For example, if the work is related to long and frequent business trips, it is easier for the employer to hire a professional who is not encumbered by family ties.

On the other hand, having a family may indicate that the person is stable and decent.
    
9. Do not be afraid the question about your personal deficiencies – it is part of any job interview.

It is important to take into account that the specialty for which you are going to work.

For example, if you want to work as a journalist, do not talk about such quality as lack of confidence in dealing with people.

 In total, it is important to the employer to prove that you are able to talk about the personal shortcomings and know how to overcome them.
   
10. Do not forget to prepare documents - resume in two copies, diploma of education and additional advanced training certificates.

The most important secret is the presence of a genuine interest not only to the post, but also to the activity and objectives of the company.

 In order to avoid misunderstandings do not hesitate to ask questions about working conditions and whether the employer adheres to the Labour Act.

11. Smile and be positive, try to answer confidently and concisely, avoid complicated and confusing terms.

Be well mannered.

 It is quite possible that you will pass a job interview successfully and soon you will get the job of your dream!

All The Best.
