POINTS TO REMEMBER BEFORE APPEARING IN AN INTERVIEW

Recruiters and the people, who are recruited, both have their own story. Reviewing so many people with almost similar skills and yet finding the best candidate is not an easy job. A slight mistake and you have hired a wrong person. Recruiters have to be keen observer and must have an eye for detail. Now talking from the end of the people being interviewed, what exactly is the difference that leads to selection of a candidate and rejection of another? Here are some important points one must remember before appearing for an interview. They are as follows-

1.       APPEARANCE – As it is said first impression is the last impression, appearance leads to an impression either long-lasting or for fraction of seconds. The way you dress up for an interview does matter. One must strictly take up formal attire while going for an interview. The way you look describes the how serious you are for the job you have applied for. Moreover, it is the first rule of being a professional.

2.       BODY LANGUAGE – Body language speaks it all. The people interviewing you don’t know you then how do they judge you? They review your body language. The way you walk, the way you sit, the way your hand gestures are, your facial expressions, everything matters. Sweating, rubbing hands etc are all signs of nervousness and must be avoided.

3.       COMMUNICATION SKILLS – The way we communicate and interact tells a lot about us. Good communication skills are major requirement for any job profile. Good communication skills help in client building and growing the network of a company and it also benefits an individual by developing a sense of confidence.

4.       SKILL REQUIREMENT FOR THE PROFILE – Apart from everything else, if you do not have the skill set required for the job you are applying, you are no good for the company and you will not be hired. One has to analyze the skills one possess and whether or not one fits for the profile. Various training and certifications acts like brownie points and will obviously get you an extra point. Experience does matter.

5.       RESUME – Before you meet the recruiter, the only thing he or she has to analyze you is the resume. Resume should strictly be professional and true. It must be updated from time to time. Every possible knowledge, experience and skills you possess must be mentioned in the resume. No one is going to ask you personally. Resume should not be over-exaggerated or give false information.

6.       ATTITUDE – Attitude is everything. The way you keep your attitude, your behavior will decide where you stand. As it is said, “People may hear your words, but they will feel your attitude.”
