- If the employer offers you an interview, they already believe you are capable of performing the role.
- An interview team are not trying to trick you or trip you up. They are
looking for factual information that proves you can actually do what you
say you can.
- Cultural fit with the employers brand and values is just as important as
your technical or professional skill set. Make sure you know why you fit with their company culture, if you don't know how will they?
- The employer will only know what you choose to tell them.
So, if you are not sure how something will be perceived you don't have to
talk about it. Preparing how you want to talk about yourself is vital in order
to maintain confidence, positive responses and ultimately your objective,
gaining the role. It also means that you can avoid slipping into self-
destructive or self-sabotaging communication habits
- The employer will only remember 2-3 things about you... what will those things be for you? Remember... all of the candidates going to
interview could actually preform the role so you need to decide the most
memorable, interesting and important 2-3 things are about you and ensure
you communicate those.
- If the employer finds you hard work they will not envisage you getting
along with their team. At interview you need to be easy to talk to, have
open body language, be forthcoming and informed. When you are easy
to deal with, you are likeable and that builds rapport.
