There is nothing that says, hey may be this person isn’t the right individual for this position then someone is just not too sure about themselves. I know that’s not what most people want to hear because that’s the last thing that they want to have to worry about. The last thing people want to think about is not being confident, not being well practiced and well versed in the crazy questions and experiences that will come across during the interview.
I really could be an all-star;
after I moved out of
my mom’s house…Well if you keep this five quick and easy tips in mind your confidence will be ultimately boosted and help prove that you are a valuable candidate for position you are applying for. Let’s get started on this right away.
No:1. Dress Neat For Confidence
These details are covered on many other websites and some of these are the videos and postings so I won’t go through those nitty-gritty details. The main point here is that if you can project your sense of confidence and your relevance to the position you are going for, its one less thing that you have to worry for and it is unconsciously noticed by an interviewer. If you don’t look like you are confident, if you don’t look like you are ultimately interested in the position that you are going for its going to be no.
May be they won’t explicitly be able to put it into words or into their notes but on the back of the mind there is going to that little voice like “huh that guy didn’t seem like that guy or girl didn’t seem like he or she was the perfect match for this position”. So no matter what else is put down that day for proving you the right person that will always be back there and you can take care of that very easily.
No:2. Look Into My Eyes!
That’s right body language is important. One of the easiest things to do is maintain good eye contact. Don’t be unnatural with it but know that if you have the tendency to not look people at their eyes when you talk to them you might want to practice this how had it done well whether that’s in a mall or talking to strangers in line of a store or something.
This is something you will really get comfortable with maintaining somewhere around the 50 to 80 percent eye contact range. You don’t want to be super creepy kind of staring like craze the whole time and just making people orderly super uncomfortable. But you also don’t want to be the person that, that’s just kind of answering questions and never really paying attention to what’s going on. Both of those are extremes I understand that.
But it is probably something that most people don’t notice. May be this mean to be the bust out your video camera and film yourself talking to someone close to you in at the position and bring you a thing and see hey do you maintain eye contact on a regular basis if so great you are pride to be got it, if not time to practice.
No:3. Keep Your Questions Relevant
This is you paying attention to what they are saying in asking things that are directly on point to either things they are bought up or ultimate company goals. You are not talking about what you want, you are not talking about the benefits and you are not talking about crazy other topics that they have something to do with something controversial or not relevant to the position.
Focus, seemed you later to focus is what you are after here. You want the position because it will be good for the company and good for you. Prove how good you are for the company and everything else is taking care. Nothing knows better.
No:4. Be Positive With Your Answers
If it is a question about your worst quality or why you left your last position or something you didn’t like about and a colleague or either type question that might have a negative connotation stay positive. I am not asking you to lie or I am not asking you to do any kind of funkiness.
I am asking you to find with whatever creative juices you have in you, someway of answering those questions in a positive way. It’s going to differ for each person but you can always see a learning opportunity, a positive aspect something that you should have learned out of that position in reflection. Bring those up.
No: 5. Do Your Research
This is checking what’s on the website, checking what’s on the linked in, checking what’s on the social media websites and any other sources that are relevant to the company. This is you figuring out what pain point that the company is currently dealing with and how you can directly address that in addition to the overall company philosophy. Maybe this is setting up a Google alert or checking the news for that company and seeing what manner of things are happening.
You could just pop over to Google finance and check the stock ticker for the company (if it’s big enough to be publicly traded). You will be able to see what spikes in price happened and they are usually caused by something important. The graph will put in an event at those points and when you hover over that event, you can see the details. Those could be wonderful hands on things to bring up during the interview. Whether it’s a question or just something you want have answered before you commit your life to this job.
