Facing a job interview is not easy, but when you have to prove what you are and impress the interviewer. First of all it is important to understand the 3 stages of the interview that are: the before, during and after, so I, Ismael Gerli, will mention some tips to overcome the interview and emerge victorious:

  • Before the interview:
    • Know everything you can about the company.
    • Review your skills, experience and training.
    • Take the curriculum and know it it to perfection as it will be based on it.
    • Make a relationship with your weak points and prepare arguments to defend them.
    • Become a relationship of your strengths and prepare arguments that corroborating.
    • If you are quoted in writing, confirm your attendance.
    • Check your appearance (avoids striking clothes; well-dressed, clean and shaved).
    • Go alone.
    • Be punctual (5 minutes before).
    • Prepare the interview, the coach is going to do it too.
  • During the interview:
    • Greet the interviewer with a conventional formula: Good afternoon, Mr. Ruiz.
    • Sit straight, not on the edge of the chair (insecurity).
    • Don’t be the first to extend your hand.
    • He greets with a handshake and smiles, looking into his eyes.
    • Don’t sit down until they tell you.
    • Don’t tutees if they don’t tell you.
    • Stay tuned and nice.
    • Don’t interrupt.
    • Look at the interviewer in the eyes, but without intimidation.
    • Let him take the lead.
    • Don’t talk too much, not too little.
    • Watch your language.
    • Think before you answer.
    • Think and respond in a positive way.
  • After the interview
    • Analyze the results, score strengths and weaknesses during the interview… can serve you for upcoming interviews in that or other companies.
