During the interview, your interviewer is giving you information that can guide you on how to behave during the meeting. Observe your interviewer's style. Listen very carefully, and let him/her know that you have been listening by asking good questions and making good comments. Answer questions by providing the information asked for.
Put up with rejection?
If you are rejected from the company, you may feel hurt, angry or fed up. Instead of being stuck in feeling rejected, take back the power by staying proactive. If you really wanted to work for that particular company, sit down and write a letter. Remind them of all the positive points you could bring to the organization. Let them know you are still interested in working for the company if something should change or open up.
Face the feedback!
If you ask for feedback from an interviewer, be prepared to hear things that could be upsetting. You should listen carefully, and take notes to refer to and react to. Do not argue or defend yourself. At last do not forget to thank the interviewer. Then, take the advice and think about changing some techniques to improve on your next interview.
Emotional preparation!
Preparing emotionally for the interview is also important. The right mood helps you perform at your best. Try out following points for preparing emotionally:
- Get moving that means go for a walk, run, exercise, meditate, do yoga, stretch, dance.
- Sing your favorite song while driving to the interview.
- Repeat an inspirational phrase aloud that's meaningful for you
Preparing to meet the employer!
The interview is not the time to get to know about the post or the employers business. It is a chance for you and the employer to get to know one another.
Gather information about your employer before you are interviewed like what are their current projects, what other interests do they have? etc.
You should know job description, or ask someone in a similar post. Otherwise ring the company to clarify.
Keep in mind that the employer is interested in you as a person, your experiences and your opinions do take the time to sit down and think about you, who you are and what you have achieved.
Remember the one thing that your CV must be with you and make notes about your work record and what you have achieved. Make notes and prepare and rehearse sound bites about yourself.
