Useful Tips for Job Seeker

The Interview

  • Appearance : Appear presentable which includes neatness in your turnout, and wearing formal clothes( Shirt/Pants which are ironed). There is no point in saying later that you forgot to put on formal clothes and express regret.
  • Posture : Sit upright on your chair with your arms on the table in front of you and look straight in the eyes of the interviewer while answering him. Be relaxed with a smile and not tensed. If you are capable, they will select you finally.
  • Know your Resume : Be thorough with the content of your resume as regards the experiences given. You must be well aware of each job you have done till date and must answer them with a smile briefly if possible unless the Interviewer is digging deeper into a topic. Basic idea is that whatever is written on the resume by you should have a reason. For example-If you have left a company in 6 months or 1 year, there should be a plausible and justified reason of doing so.
  • Patience : This is a watch word for all job seekers because sometimes companies check your patience/tolerance levels and deliberately make you wait in the queue.
  • Punctuality : You must ensure that you wait for the Interviewer and not Vice -Versa.Otherwise it will be a instant rejection.
  • Salary Negotiation : Generally, the company has a fair idea of your expectations before the interview because either you have communicated directly while applying or have informed the HR Consultant Company Official. However, if the interviewer inquire your expectation, be flexible and not very firm with it in case you like the company, job profile and wish to join. This way you will get an increment and the company will be happy to take you onboard and you will get the choice job.
  • Ending of Interview : You must thank the interviewer with a smile and by shaking hands in case he/she extends their hands. If the interview is through Online Video, you may either bow down slightly or thank him for the effort and time.
