Unfortunately, even good specialists often cannot get a job only because of the wrong behavior at the interview and the inability to make a favorable impression on the employer. It is very important to prepare for such meetings with great responsibility so that they end successfully.
How to make a good impression on an employer
First of all, you need to take care of your appearance. Do not think that the employer will not pay attention to this. Hair, shoes and clothing must be impeccable. If you need time to tidy yourself up, come 10 minutes early.
It is advisable to find out in advance what dress code is set in the company and follow it. This will show the employer that you have thoroughly approached the issue and prepared well.
They will certainly pay attention to what time you arrive. You should not be too early and spend time in dreary waiting at the office. But at the same time, it is not recommended to be late. It is advisable to arrive 5 minutes before the start of the interview - this is the most suitable option.
The employer will certainly pay attention to your communication style. If on your resume you declare that your strengths include stress resistance, and at the interview you blush, twirl a button in your fingers or stutter with excitement, the employer will surely draw unflattering conclusions for you. Try to be calm, and if you worry too much, choose a good sedative. Balance and sociability will play into your hands.
What is assessed in the interview
It is important to be able to communicate correctly. Remember business etiquette. Familiarity, rudeness, slang, excessive self-confidence, disrespect towards the interlocutor - all this will attract the attention of the employer and become one of the reasons why the applicant will not be hired. If you accept this tone in the letter, you may not even be invited to the conversation, since a poorly composed message will not attract the attention of company representatives.
Try to act naturally. Theatricality or even poorly hidden falsity will not hide from the eyes of the employer.
At the interview, attention is paid to what basic knowledge and skills a person has for work. Do not think that they will take your word for it: if a professional talks to you, he will probably ask several questions directly related to the position for which you are applying. The employer will pay attention to the correctness and confidence of your answers.
Employers pay special attention to work experience and reasons for dismissal from their previous jobs. If there were long breaks from work, this may also generate interest. Be prepared to talk about these topics and answer all questions.
