You should prepare carefully for each interview you have.
Much of confidence comes from being prepared, and when you feel confident
about an interview, you’ll perform well.
give a firm handshake and greet each interviewer in turn
establish rapport with the interviewers, remember, they’re often
nervous too
smile confidently as appropriate
sit comfortably upright
listen carefully to the questions and ask for clarification if you
aren’t sure what’s being asked
take your time and think about your answers
make eye contact with the person who asked the question, but don’t
stare
use positive words
speak clearly
be positive and enthusiastic
smoke, chew gum, tobacco or anything else
appear too casual
criticise anyone
lie, always be as honest as possible
ask about pay and conditions, there’s time for this if you’re
being offered the job.
use uhs, you knows and slang
Keep any questions you have brief and relevant. There’s
no point in asking about fringe benefits before you’re offered the
job but you might like to know the main responsibilities of the post if
they haven’t already made this clear.
