How to Get a Great Job Part-4/4

 

Consider about Interview

 

·           Dress professionally! Men should wear a suit and tie with dress shoes or, at the very least, a dress shirt and slacks and be clean-shaven. Women should wear a dress, blouse and skirt, or pants suit. Dresses and skirts should fall below the knees. Wear mild colors (black, gray, brown, white). Keep the amount of make-up worn and jewelry to minimum and don't wear perfume or cologne.

·           Shake hands with the interviewer and introduce yourself and why you are there.

·           Maintain eye contact at all times when the interviewer is speaking, but only occasionally when you are speaking.

·           Sit up straight with hands folded on your lap and try to keep fidgeting to a minimum.

·           Come prepared with 3-4 questions to ask of the interviewer (e.g., what methods are in place for measuring job performance, what might my first project be).

·           Be honest and take your time answering.

·           If you don't understand what is being asked, ask for clarification.

·           State your willingness to learn, your interest in the position, and the skills you can bring to the job (list your accomplishments).

·           Thank the interviewer for the interview, shake hands, and ask when you can expect to get an answer.

·           Send a thank-you letter immediately following the interview. Indicate your name, address, and phone number; the employer's name, address, and phone number; and the current date. Thank the person for the interview, list the job, list the date of the interview, and reiterate your interest and ability to do the job. If you have any concerns about how you answered a question, restate it here.
