Job Interview do’s and don’ts

The interview process involves several steps that both a company and a job

 

candidate go through to hire or be hired for a position. It includes a meeting, a few

 

questions,ahandshake,andajobofferfortherightcandidate.Knowingwhattodo

 

and what not to do can be the difference between receiving a job offer and losing

 

an opportunity. Follow this general list to guide you toward saying and doing the

 

right things to impress a hiring manager:

 

1. Resume and application

 

Do: Provide accurate information on your resume and application. Make sure

 

your details are current and offer the most relevant, impactful information related

 

totherole.Itcanbehelpfultotailoryourresumeandcoverletterforeachposition

 

you apply to so it is relevant for each individual employer.

 

Don’t: Send in a resume longer than two pages. Therefore, a short resume

 

ensures hiring managers and recruiters can read it easily. (c)

 

2. Interview preparation

 

Do: Prepare for the interview no later than the night before. Make a checklist

 

of what you’ll need to take with you, and make sure you have directions to the in-

 

terview site. Choose your interview outfit in advance and make sure it is clean and

 

ironed, if necessary. Outline your answers to common interview questions.

 

Don’t: Wait until the morning of an interview to gather your materials. Unex-

 

pected difficulties could easily make you late for your interview, which could

 

impact the hiring manager’s first impression of you. (a)

 

3. Appearance and demeanor

 

Do:Presentatidyandconfidentappearance.Wearasimple,comfortableoutfit

 

that allows you and the hiring manager to remain focused on the interview. Main-

 

tainingeyecontactandsmilinglettheinterviewerknowyou’reinterestedinthe

 

conversation. (f)

 

Don’t: Wear bold clothing or strong perfume, as they can be distracting. Also,

 

makesureyougetplentyofrestthenightbeforeaninterviewtoensureyouappear

 

alert and focused.

 

4. Interview questions

 

Do: Prepare for typical interview questions by practicing your answers. Re-

 

hearsing responses will help any anxiety or nervousness you might experience be-

 

fore your interview.

 

Don’t:Offerunnecessarydetails.Theinterviewerwantstogettoknowyou,but

 

sharing long stories or irrelevant information can distract from your qualifications.

 

Offer concise answers that relate to the role and company. (d)

54

 

5. Questions for the interviewer

 

Do: Ask relevant questions. Coming prepared with your own questions shows

KEYS

you’re interested in the company. It also demonstrates you performed research

before the interview. (e)

Don’t: Ask simple questions. Your questions should encourage the interviewer

 

to discuss the functions of the position for which you are applying.

 

6. Questions about your current or previous employers

 

Do: If the interviewer asks you about your experience with a former employer

 

or why you want to leave your current position, it’s important to offer positive ex-

 

planations. Be polite and professional when talking about past positions. (b)

 

Don’t:Usenegativelanguage.Whenyoutalkaboutapreviousemployer,focus

 

on one aspect you liked. Keep your answer short and ask a follow-up question that

 

prompts the hiring manager to respond.
