AND DONTS OF A JOB
INTERVIEW
*Dayra Rodriguez*
How should you
go for an
interview
. Check out the company
culture
When first deciding what to
wear on a job interview, you
should first take into
consideration the culture of
the company you are
interviewing with, and dress
accordingly. Are you
interviewing with a company
where the employees wear
suits everyday or do they
wear t-shirts and jeans?
* In a job interview all
counts. Not only what
you've done, your resume
or your experience. It
also imports the
impression that causes
desprendes
qualities, what others see
in you. Therefore, it is
important to devote part
of their preparation to
take care of their
appearance, how they
move and how to express.
*Before you walk into the
interview, it's assumed
that you will have done the
following: prepared
yourself by reading up on
the company and recent
company news; practiced
what you'll say to some of
the more common interview
questions.
What You Should NEVER
Do in a Job Interview
*Please…I beg of you…don’t come
to an interview if you haven’t
bathed or brushed your teeth! If
anyone thinks I’m kidding, I’m
not. While this may seem
absolutely obvious to almost
everyone, I assure you, there are
some folks who may not realize
this matters. And if you are one
of them…it absolutely does! You
don’t have to come dressed like a
fashion plate – in fact probably a
good idea not to unless it’s some
snazzy high-fashion job – and
even then, less may be more.
Tasteful, well-groomed, bathed…
Don't:
*Rub the back of your head or neck. Even
if you really do just have a cramp in your
neck, these gestures make you look
disinterested.
*Rub or touch your nose. This suggests
that you're not being completely honest,
and it's gross.
*Sit with your armed folded across your
chest. You'll appear unfriendly and
disengaged.
*Cross your legs and idly shake one over
the other. It's distracting and shows how
uncomfortable you are.
*Lean your body towards the door. You'll
appear ready to make a mad dash for the
door.
*Talking about salary and benefits in the
first interview
• Compensation is a very important
issue, do not deny it, but should not be
your main motivation at work. If a
recruiter is looking for, is because he
wants to make you an interesting offer.
• It is important to avoid the interviewer
ask questions related to the salary
offered for the position. This is not
appropriate to ask in the first or second
interviews, it may show signs of
anxiety, which does not cause a positive
image to the interviewer. There is a rule
in sales between longer it takes to talk
about a price (salary) gives more time to
sell and may be the highest bid.
