DO PREPARE
Have a pen, notepad and extra copy of your resume
with you. Place these items in a place that
will be easy for you to get to. If you
currently use a daily/weekly planner, bring this
with you. You should try to arrive at your
interview well rested with a clear mind.
DO GREET YOUR INTERVIEWER
ENTHUSIASTICALLY
Stand up and extend your hand
for their handshake. "Good morning, I'm
glad to meet you and thank you for the opportunity
to be a candidate for this position."
You should smile and show your enthusiasm about
the opportunity to work for their company.
remember: they are interviewing you for a job that
requires a lot of energy and enthusiasm. If
you don't have this for the interview, they will
not be convinced that you have the stamina
required for the job. Remember: first
impressions are lasting impressions. Are you
the person the interviewer wants greeting their
guests?
DON'T ASK TOO MANY
QUESTIONS
- Don't barrage the interviewer
with questions. Remember; they are
interviewing you. LOOK THEM IN THE EYE,
and nod encouragingly. Give your
interviewer a chance to volunteer answers
before you ask them.
- Reflect confidence in
yourself and knowledge of your job.
However, do not seem over-confident in your
abilities. Stay relaxed and answer
questions sincerely. Be
ENTHUSIASTIC!!! Lighten up and have a
sense of humor! Let your interviewer
feel at all stages of the interview that you
really want the job.

DON'T DISPLAY PERSONAL HABITS
An interviewer wants your individual
attention. Personal habits distract.
These include: smoking, chewing gum, twiddling
thumbs, tapping a pencil or a fork, humming,
whistling, stretching, cleaning finger nails,
clearing your throat or excessive "ums"
in conversation. Negative remarks will not
help your cause and will seem as though you are
blaming others for your shortcomings.
QUESTIONS TO EXPECT:
YOU SHOULD ANSWER QUESTIONS IN A CLEAR,
POSITIVE MANNER. AVOID SHORT YES/NO
ANSWERS. USE DEPTH AND THOUGHT IN YOUR
RESPONSES.
- "TELL ME ABOUT
YOURSELF"
This is not an open door to tell your
life story. Hit on general topics, i.e.:
your professional background, hobbies, etc.
- "WHAT ARE YOUR
STRENGTHS?"
Be prepared to give specific examples
of your strengths. An example would be,
"I am highly motivated,
detail-oriented."
- "WHAT ARE YOUR
WEAKNESSES?"
Don't say, "I don't have any that
I can think of". An example would
be, "I am not a good speller, so I keep a
dictionary handy" or "I sometimes am
impatient, so I sometimes fond myself working
excessively to pick up the slack of
others".
