-
Show self-confidence.
-
Make eye contact with the interviewer.
-
Speak slowly and clearly. Talking fast indicates nervousness.
-
LISTEN. Communication is a two-way street. If you are talking too much, you will probably miss cues
concerning what the interviewer feels is important. Listening is more than mere hearing and includes display of interest in what is being said and an
understanding of the purpose of the question or discussion.
-
Reflect before answering a difficult question. Don’t rush to give an answer.
-
If you need a clarification, request it. Just make sure you are listening. Asking someone to
clarify a specific point makes sense. Asking someone to re-explain an entire subject gives the impression that you have problems listening or comprehending.
-
Show your keenness to get the job - essentially as a professional experience and opportunity to make a useful contribution. Mention, briefly, tasks that you
have done on similar lines elsewhere without making a long lecture of it. Do not refer to any confidential elements in the jobs (tasks) that you have done
earlier.
-
When it is your turn, ask the questions you have prepared in advance.
