4 Interview Etiquette To Boost Your Chances Of Landing The Job
The world contains over 7 billion people.
Chances are, at least 7 persons are aspiring for
what you are aspiring for. Resources ( jobs) are
scarce, hence there is the need to allocate the
limited resources to the one that can utilize
them the most.
Every industry has its own rules, jargon and
guidelines. It is proper for you to acquaint
yourself with the little etiquette that job
interviews require. This might be the only
distinguishing factor between you and the
person sitting next to you at the interview.
Thank God your application has been
considered. You have been applying with little
or no success. The call to interview is an
opportunity to show the employer that you are
what you said on paper and much more.
However, little things could jeopardize your
chance of securing the job.
Employers usually have tons of applications to
go through every now and then. Some of
whom are more qualified than you. Hence, they
are looking for means to cut down the stress.
In addition, the work environment is different
from the normal environment you are
acquainted with. Certain behavioral patterns
have to be shown. Since the interviewers do
not reside with you before now, the only way
they could identify these desired traits is what
they can see during the interviews.
Some interview etiquette
1. Calmness:
There is the temptation to be
hypersensitive during interviews. Your
adrenaline could betray you sometimes and
make your anxiety very palpable. But what you
need above all else is your calmness. This will
ensure that you don’t knock off the water
during the interview. It also present a sense of
maturity and makes it difficult for the
interviewers to read your weaknesses.
2. Be a polite guest: Have you ever see a
situation where someone comes to your house
for the first time and started rearranging your
house for you? It does happen; and that is a
trait of a rude guest. Be careful not to be a
commando in the interview room. Do not sit
until you are asked to do so. And remember to
thank them afterwards. Do not remove your
smelly shoes in the interview room for any
reason. Laugh with them if they throw some
jokes your way. Put on a calm and polite
disposition-they don’t care about the fact that
you were jobless for years. Be a polite guest.
3. Avoid lies: Have you ever met some terrible
liars? They are liars and they are stupid at the
same time. Imagine someone telling you she
has a Ph.D in English and cannot express herself
in the simplest term in same. Do not lie to your
interviewers. Some of them have interviewed
so many people and they literally know what
you would say next. A lady lost a job just
because she said she could play chess. The
interviewer brought out chess, gave her the
black pieces and asked her to play first. She did
and she lost the job. Be honest and be yourself.
4. Dress for the occasion: Ever heard the
saying “dress the way you want to be
addressed?” Well, it is almost a universal truth.
Dressing scores you high at the interviews.
However, you don’t have to put on luxury cloths.
All you need to do is dress simple and smart.
Follow these simple guidelines and land yourself
the job of your dream.
