Interviewing Advice
When most people interview for a job they get very nervous. Being nervous for an
interview is natural but if you're prepared you'll feel more confident and you'll be
more likely to get the job. Read the following tips on job interviewing and try them
on your next job interview.
Make a list of a few of your strong points that you want to emphasize in the
interview. Think of things that make you good at that job. For example, I am a
patient person or I have experience in this kind of job. These points are going to
be things you need to remember to talk about in the interview.
Get your clothes ready. Plan what you are going to wear. Make sure it is clean and
ironed and the shoes look good.
Call for directions to get to the place where the interview will be. Drive there a day
or two before the interview to make sure that you know how to get there.
Research the company. Look for information about the company on the Internet or
talk to people you know who work there. The more you know about the company,
the more informed you will be in the interview.
Practice interviewing. Have a friend pretend that he is the person who will interview
you. Have him ask you interview-type questions and practice answering them with
confidence.
