Job and School Application Interview
General Suggestions:
I. preparation
- Be prepared: re-read your resume and remember the skills you listed there.
- Bring with you examples of your work and evidence of your awards.
- Dress properly.
- Get to know the company as much as possible. Bring with you its complete address and contact phone no. just in case you cannot find it on the day of the interview. Better go there earlier.
- Prepare the answers for the possible questions they may ask.
- Be prepared with some proper questions about the job or the company to ask the interviewer.
II. At the Interview:
- Do not sit down before you are asked to. Remember the basic greeting manners. (Nice to meet you, ...")
- Use the questions to show and elaborate on your strengths. Do not just answer yes or no. On the other hand, do not talk on and on so that you monopolize the interview.
- Don't feel frustrated when they ask you something you do not know. However, try to direct the discussion to something you know.
