Applying for the job is always easy as there are many job portals online where you can apply to the company of your choice. But the main problem arises when you are notified that you have passed the initial review and are scheduled for the final interview. It’s no problem if the Interview is in your local area, but it becomes a whole different thing when the job interview in international and you are unable to go for the interview and have to do it remotely. International job interviews are mostly conducted online via apps like Skype and Google hangouts or telephonic interviews are conducted. No matter what the case, you should always be prepared to give your best in the interview. Today we will guide you through the steps to prepare for an International Job Interview. It doesn’t matter if you are from India and your interviewer is sitting in the US or Canada. Using these steps you will be able to successfully complete your remote Job interview and with your skills you might even get a green light for the next round or even a job letter on the spot. Steps To Prepare For An International Job Interview 1)Get your questions ready Yes, you heart it right! Even though you are the one being interviewed, you should have your own set of questions that you want to ask about the job profile and your role. An interview is not only interviewers asking questions to judge if the candidate is qualified or not, but you must also have questions for the company. This is how companies judge how prepared a candidate is and how much he knows about the company and how willing he is to ask questions in tough situations. You can have questions like the history of the organization, what will your role be, what’s the pay like, if there’s any room for negotiation, will they help with your relocation and visa approval or not, and more. These are the type of questions one should have if they are appearing for a job international. It doesn’t matter if its your local interview or an interview with an international organization. 2) Get your Visa Ready Now you might be thinking how is this going to help in the interview? Well, it does. The company you are interviewing for wants to know how soon you can relocate if you are selected for the job. If your Visa
is approved or already in process, then they understand that you are someone optimistic and confident in your abilities to secure this job. 3) Brush up on your skills and practice some frequently asked interview questions The one thing that’s going to come most handy in the interview is your skills. So make sure to brush up on your skills and practice some of the most frequently asked interview questions of your niche. If you are applying for any specific post of any industry then you can search Google for “Your Industry interview questions” and get a list of interview questions previously asked by interviewers of your industry. 4) Get A Virtual or Toll free number What if the company opts for a telephonic interview? Let’s say you are from Greece and interviewing for a job in US or Canada, the call rates for a call from US to Greece or Greece to US is very high and if the interview is going to last a solid half or full hour then it’s going to cost you as well as your interviewer a lot and can leave a bad imprint on your interviewers mind. You can buy a US virtual phone number or US toll free number so that all the incoming as well as outgoing calls to US will be treated as a local call and will be charged at less than local rates. By using a US number you can make the interviewers believe that you are already in the country and with an 1800 US number you make yourself appear professional and local. 5) Be Confident Now that you have all you need to appear for the interview, all that’s left is the interview itself. Be confident and answer all the questions in a calm and positive manner. Make sure your interviewers are able to understand your accent (if any) and make sure you are in an area with good internet connection so that the call doesn’t get disconnected. We wish you good luck for the upcoming interview and we hope that you get the job. So this was our article on how to prepare for an international job interview.
