What to keep in mind during your job interview

Always remember that you are a unique person, believe in yourself and what you have to offer.

• Look the person(s) who will interview you, straight in the eye and give a confident handshake
• Maintain eye contact with the interviewer(s)
• Smile - it’s contagious
• Pay attention and listen to the questions
• Sit up straight and don’t fidget with your hands or chew gum
• Answer questions to the point, and speak clearly
• Exchange information - ask relevant questions
• Sell your strengths and skills. Remember that this is what they’re interested in
• Do not discuss salary unless the interviewer brings it up
• At the end of the interview, ask the interviewer what the next stage will be e.g. “When can I expect to hear from you?”
• Thank the interviewer politely for the opportunity to meet with you
