Definition
• An interview is a conversation where questions are
asked and answers are given. In common parlance,
the word "interview" refers to a one-on-one
conversation between an interviewer and
an interviewee.
• The interviewer asks questions to which the
interviewee responds, usually so information may
be transferred from interviewee to interviewer (and
any other audience of the interview). Sometimes,
information can be transferred in both directions.
• It is a communication, unlike a speech, which
produces a one-way flow of information.

Dressing for
Interview
6
 Dressing for Interview should be in formal and
decent manner. We should wear light color shirt,
make sure your belt and shoes match in color and
finish.
 The key to acing formal interview attire is to
dress conservatively. A suit is a must-have for a
formal interview so choose yours carefully.
 The on-trend suit jacket has two buttons, not three,
so be sure yours only has two buttons! While you're
standing and walking around, keep the top button
buttoned and the bottom button unbuttoned. When
you sit down for the interview, unbutton both
buttons.

Body language, Communication
Body language is a form of non-verbal
communication, consisting of body poise,
gestures and eye movement. Humans send
and interpret such signals subconsciously.
Some research has stated that human
communication consists of 93% body
language and paralinguistic cues, while only
7% of communication consists of words
themselves however, other research assert the
between 60 and 70% of all meaning is
derived from nonverbal behaviour.
Body language may provide cues as to the
attitude or state of mind of a person.

Listen
12
• Listening is the ability to accurately receive and
interpret messages in the communication process.
Effective listening is a skill that underpins all
positive human relationships. Spend some time
thinking about and developing your listening
skills – they are the building blocks of success.
• Listening is key to all effective communication.
Without the ability to listen effectively, messages
are easily misunderstood. As a result,
communication breaks down and the sender of
the message can easily become frustrated or
irritated.

Conclusion
13
Interviewing for a job takes a good amount of self-
confidence, panache and interpersonal communication
savvy. They way in which you present yourself during an
interview gives hiring managers a first impression of you
as a potential staffer, and sets the tone for how you would
perform in an everyday capacity. Interview skills for
setting yourself apart from your competition include
advance planning and research, an in-depth knowledge
of the company, and a comprehensive understanding of
the responsibilities of the role you're seeking.
