HOW TO PREPARE FOR AN INTERVIEW: KEY STEPS TO GET YOUR DREAM JOB An interview revolves around you convincing the interviewer about your credibility for the job. You tell them about your skills, knowledge and so on and so forth. To get selected for the role, you have to show motivation and align your goals according to the goals of the company. That way, you can not only crack the interview but also leave a mark on them which they remember you by. Also, you need to follow a protocol to make it through an interview and into the company. Below mentioned are some tips you should follow while preparing for an interview: 1. Be well rested before the interview: This tip may seem obvious but it is amazing how many people don’t follow it. You always need to be well rested that basically means, no all-night cramming sessions. Stay sharp during he interview and show that you are interested in whatever they are saying. 2. Dress appropriately for the job: If you are interviewing for an office job, you probably shouldn’t go in wearing beach clothes, and if you are interviewing for a life guard, you probably shouldn’t go in wearing a suit. If you are appropriately
dressed, it will help the interviewer envision you in the role already which can only help you get the job. 3. Clean up your online presence or social media presence: Companies today are being more and more thorough when doing a background check on their potential candidates and this includes Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn profiles. Make sure you don’t have any incriminating photos or foul language written on your wall. 4. Don’t be late for the interview: To ensure that you are on time for the interview, you have to figure out how long it is going to take to reach the interview location and what transport options do you have. One is for sure, if you are late, you have already taken yourself out of the running for the position. It is always good to give yourself about 30 minutes of extra time. 5. Always practice: Prepare practice examples of interview question. Don’t just cram the answers which you find on the internet. Mould your answers according to the mission, vision, beliefs and values of the company. Try to convince them that your skill set is exactly what they have been looking for and for that you have to read the company profile thoroughly. “Do you have any questions?” This is the most common question with which an interview ends. The answer to this question should never be negative. If you get asked this question, what you can do is ask them something which has not been discussed during the interview. For example, you can ask them about the growth prospects in the company or maybe you can ask them regarding the next step in the hiring process. You can also jot down some points which you want to ask before going into the interview. Following these steps significantly ups the chances of you getting the job.
