Preparing for a job interview or facing an interview is just not about your degree and technical skills.
It’s about yourself and how you sell yourself. With an experience of more than a decade, “Selective Edutech Consultants” is pioneer
in preparing candidates for job interview.
BE THERE ON TIME
Try to arrive 5 or 10 minutes early to be safe. Find out ahead of time where you’re going and how long it will take to get there.
Drive or travel the route a day or two ahead, at the same time of day as you will on the day of the interview. Confirm how often the buses run. Have a back-up plan.
LET YOUR PERSONALITY SHINE
If you’re excited about the job, don’t be afraid to show it. Employers want passionate employees, so be yourself. Just remember to always keep it professional.
BE CONFIDENT
Feeling nervous in an interview is perfectly normal, just don’t let your nerves overpower your interview. Eye contact and a calm,
clear speaking voice are excellent ways to show your confidence.
WATCH BODY LANGUAGE
During your interview, relax and sit naturally, but don’t slouch in your chair or lean on the interviewer’s desk.
Avoid chewing gum, or fidgeting with jewellery or your hair.
BE PROFESSIONAL
This begins with a smile and a firm handshake. Remember, this is your first introduction to the organization, so be polite to everyone
you meet and turn off your cell phone.
LISTEN AND ASK FOR CLARIFICATION, IF YOU NEED IT
Remember to listen carefully to the interview questions so that you actually answer the question, and never interrupt. If you don’t
understand something, don’t be afraid to ask for clarification.
LET THEM KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE TO OFFER
When answering the questions, let the employer see what you have to offer their organization. Talk about your past experiences
and accomplishments without bragging, and tie those experiences to how they can help you contribute to their organization.
THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK
Although you want to be open and honest in your interview, avoid talking about your personal or financial problems.
DON'T LINGER
Leave as soon as the interview is over, making sure you don’t linger. Shake the interviewer’s hand again, restate your interest
in working for the organization, and thank them for the interview.
