Win in Your Job Interview


Free interview tips to make the best impression during your job interview. Know how to stand out from the competition with winning job interview skills and get the job you want!




It is essential to make the right impression from the moment you enter the company for your job interview.

Present yourself positively to everyone you meet and leave behind a good impression. You will be remembered as a candidate who was polite and friendly.

Your job interview begins in the parking lot, act professionally as anyone could be observing you.

As you arrive for you job interview, turn off your cell phone. Now you are completely focused on the interview and at no point will you be interrupted by a ringing phone! Using gadgets such as ipods or MP3 players while you wait for your interview gives the impression of a lack of interest and an unprofessional attitude.

Free interview tips that help you to impress include greeting the receptionist politely and speaking confidently when you introduce yourself.

Explain your reason for being there and ask for the interviewer by name. You should arrive about ten minutes early, spend this time making friendly small talk with the receptionist. You can gain some useful information about the company or interviewer as well as make a positive impression on the receptionist.

You may be asked to complete some forms on arrival. Ensure you provide the correct information and complete all the requirements.

Interviewers may ask their assistants for an opinion of the candidate. Make sure you are professional and polite to any support staff. View each contact you make in the company as a part of your job interview process.

The very first impression that the interviewer has of you is based mainly on non-verbal clues - your appearance, your interview dress and the way you greet the interviewer. Make sure you stand up, look directly at the interviewer and give a firm handshake, saying something along the lines of, "I am pleased to meet you, Mr Smith."

It is always valuable to use the interviewer's name, this is the start of building good rapport. Wait for the interviewer to give you the signal to sit down, either a hand gesture or when he or she sits down themselves.

If you are sitting at a table, place your document folder on the table rather than keeping it on your lap. If you have a handbag, place this on the floor by your feet. It will only get in the way on your lap or on the table. If there is no table think carefully before accepting the offer of something to drink. You don't want to have to balance a cup of coffee or glass of water throughout the interview!

When you walk into the interview the more prepared you are the greater your chances of success.
