An Interview is usually the first one-on-one encounter you'll have with an employer.
You can direct and decide the outcome of any Interview.
You will get the best results if you follow a few simple rules:
* Know what you desire to get
* Know what employers desire to get
* Know what the company/business desires to get
* Know the actual mechanics of an Interview
Practice using all of this information in a "mock" Interview with a friend or family member.
* Be mindful of how you speak
* Try not to use slang
* Don't use any profanity
When you go for the real Interview, pay close attention to your overall physical appearance.
| Tips, tricks and trade secrets |
One "trick" that has proven useful is "voice matching".
This is when you listen to the employer and then match the speed, decibel and tone of your voice to theirs.
When you "mirror" employers in this way, they're more comfortable. And that encourages a sense of connection.
Listen to the employer first, to get this information, as well as to know what questions they're asking. Especially the ones that are only implied ...
It's up to you to know just what questions an employer can legally ask you.
Answer questions simply and clearly.
When you do speak about yourself, be honest and sincere. Don't make promises you can't keep.
Show enthusiasm and confidence. But - don't "run on" about yourself.
You can learn a great deal about a person and what they know by the questions they ask.
Ask intelligent questions about aspects that are important and relative to the discussion.
Research the company/business and its future goals before the Interview.
This way you'll know the right answers to give as well as the right questions to ask.
At the end of the Interview, it's professional courtesy to thank an employer for their time. And with all confidence, tell them you'll look forward to hearing from them soon!
Interviews don't have to be unpleasant experiences. In fact, they can be just the opposite.
That's if you do your research -
First on your desires, an employer's desires and the desires of the company/business.
And then on how to use all of this information to conduct a great Interview, which you'll have practiced.
With all of this back up you can get what you desire from any Interview!
