Thing to Do During the Interview

  • Maintain your focus and get rid of all the worries roaming in your mind.
  • Make sure to smile at opportune time and not unnecessarily.
  • Never ever get indulged in rambling ragas. The panel wants answers to the point and you must aim to provide that.
  • Don’t make the mistake of keeping your phone on. It is recommended to switch off your cell before interview starts.
  • It pays to be expressive. Candidates with stammering or mumbling nature tend to have slim chances so better try to talk in a slow but crisp manner.
  • Eye contact is very important factor because it shows your confidence level.
  • Arguments should be avoided. Polite responses are expected and appreciated.
  • Successful candidates also try to remain forthright and direct. Beating around the bush won’t fetch you good results.
  • Make sure to introduce yourself clearly. Better to state clearly your first and last name.
  • Before answering the question, take your own time to understand the question properly.
  • The panel does not look at your speed while you reply rather its about how effectively you reply.
  • Don’t ever lie in an interview. It’s a fundamental truth that must be followed.
  • There are few times when you don’t know the answer so instead of making any wild guess, better admit that you don’t know the answer.
  • It’s a bad manner to badmouth or blame anyone during an interview.
  • At the end of the interview, when you are asked to question, if any try to ask intelligent and relevant questions. Also make a point to express your keen desire in joining the job.
