Tips for a good job interview

Interviewers want to assess: Interest in the job Professionalism Personality Fit, including applicable skills 1. You should dress for success: Wear a suit. 2. You should give a firm handshake: Not limp, not too hard. Remember to make eye contact and smile. 3. Key questions: Tell me about yourself: Give a summary of your career, abilities, and goals.

Dont tell your whole life story. What is one of your weaknesses? Dont talk about your personal weaknesses, Eg. I often oversleep, and I have missed important meetings. Instead, talk about professional areas where you can improve, Eg. If someone isnt working hard enough, I sometimes do their job. I am trying to focus on my own work. Inappropriate questions, Eg. About your personal life, your age, if you are married. You can say. I d rather keep the focus on the job, not my personal life. 4. Things to remember: Stand up to greet the interviewer. Dont wear too much cologne.

 Bring a copy of your CV (resume) Ask for the interviewers card Turn off your cell phone. If you forget, and it rings, apologize immediately and turn it off without checking it.
