Preparing for Job Interview
Introduction
You took lot of efforts sending resumes and now you are
called for a face-to-face interaction.
Congratulations!
A call for an interview is not an appointment letter.
You are not the only one who is called to talk. You
may have very tough competition. Therefore, you still
need to work more… for the meeting called as Job
Interview!
Preparation
How to Crack It!
Let’s study in detail now,
how to prepare well for a job interview.
Homework
Research the organization beforehand
It shows your interest in the job
Go through the website thoroughly
Try to get the information relevant to you
Check the exact interview venue
“Elevator Speech”
Prepare your “Elevator speech”.
Practice it very well.
Don’t memorize it, sound natural.
The interview is your chance to shine
You sell yourself in an interview
Person, Clothes and Accessories
Be healthy and handsome
Invest in your wardrobe, it really pays.
Keep neat, professional clothes ready
Choose appropriate accessories.
Work on the FAQs

Refresh your knowledge
Some common questions:
Tell me something about yourself.
Why should we hire you?
What is your greatest accomplishment?
What are your strong and weak points?
What is your ideal job?
Have some good questions to ASK!
Prepare questions to ask about:
The organization’s growth plan
Your career development scope
Other relevant information
Asking questions in interview is as important as answering them.
Documents
Keep all the necessary documents ready
The documents include photocopies of:
Academic credentials:
marks-memos, certificates
Professional credentials:
pay slips, appointment letters, offer letters
Other documents:
Passport, PAN Card, Driving License
References
Find at least two key people.
Secure their permission beforehand.
Be certain that they will speak highly of
you.
Professional references may include:
Professors / HOD, Sr. Corporate professionals, Supervisors
Rehearsal
Get a trusted friend’s help.
Practice a mock interview.
Practice makes man perfect.
…Plan, prepare, execute.
You will get what you really deserve!
“I think I got the job!”
your personality must reflect the attitude,
“I think I got the job”.
Any Questions?
All the very Best!
