Very Important Tips
for
Interview
|
Interview PurposeThe
interview is an opportunity for both the employer and the applicant
to gather information. The employer wants to know if you, the
applicant, have the skills, knowledge, self-confidence, and
motivation necessary for the job. At this point you can be confident
that the employer saw something of interest in your resume. He or
she also wants to determine whether or not you will fit in with the
organization's current employees and philosophy. Similarly, you will
want to evaluate the position and the organization, and determine if
they will fit into your career plans. The
interview is a two-way exchange of information. It is an
opportunity for both parties to market themselves. The employer is
selling the organization to you, and you are marketing your skills,
knowledge, and personality to the employer

Mistakes |
|
Oversell
|
Trying too hard to
impress; bragging; acting aggressively. |
|
Undersell
|
Failing to
emphasize the fact that you have related skills; discussing
experience using negative qualifiers (i.e. "I have a
little experience..."). |
|
Body Language
|
It is easy to
create a negative impression without even realizing that you are
doing it. Are you staring at your feet, or talking to the
interviewer's shoulder? Be aware of what your actions say about
you. |
|
Lack of
Honesty
|
The slightest
stretching of the truth may result in you being screened out. |
|
Negative
Attitude
|
The interview is
not an opportunity for you to complain about your current
supervisor or co-workers (or even about 'little' things, such as
the weather). |
|
Lack of Preparation
|
You have to know
about the organization and the occupation. If you don't, it will
appear as though you are not interested in the position. |
|
Lack of
Enthusiasm
|
If you are not
excited about the work at the interview, the employer will not
assume that your attitude will improve when hired. |
Why
Rejection?
Keep in mind that rejection is a normal part of every job search.
For every position, if 100 people apply, 99 will be rejected. If you
are rejected, it does not mean that you are not a good applicant. It
simply means that you were not the best applicant for that
particular job at that particular time. Don't get discouraged.
Rejection happens to everyone and is not a reflection of you.
Consider each new application a new opportunity.
- Walt Disney's idea for
Disneyland was rejected by six major banks before being accepted.
They said no one would come.
- A record company which had the
opportunity to sign the Beatles rejected them. They felt that
electric guitar music was only a phase.
If you still feel down after
rejection then better know this : Failure is secret of Success.
Every dog has its own day.
Keep in mind and All the Best. Enjoy the Technical World in
