With job competition at an <strong>all-time high<\/strong>, it is vital to make sure you <strong>stand out from the crowd<\/strong> in an interview. Here&#8217;s how to do it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/dressforinterview-min.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4068\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/dressforinterview-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"777\" height=\"363\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/dressforinterview-min.jpg 777w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/dressforinterview-min-300x140.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/dressforinterview-min-768x359.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/dressforinterview-min-624x292.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 777px) 100vw, 777px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Despite phone and video interviews rising in popularity, a face-to-face interview is still the <strong>preferred choice<\/strong> by many recruiters. Not only does it give them the chance to meet and interact with you properly, it also feels more <strong>personal<\/strong>\u00a0and <strong>authentic<\/strong> than a session on Skype or Google Hangout. Most companies will also interview in their own offices which could give you valuable <strong>insight<\/strong> into your potential future workplace. So, without further ado, here are your <strong>five steps to success<\/strong> in face-to-face job interviews.<\/p>\n<h2>1. Preparation<\/h2>\n<p>I cannot stress this enough: preparation is absolutely <strong>the key to a successful interview<\/strong>. So much so in fact that if you walk into an interview unprepared, you might as well not have gone at all. You&#8217;ll feel silly and you&#8217;ll be wasting everyone&#8217;s time.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Trawl through the company\u2019s website<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Check out the company\u2019s news and recent <strong>exciting innovations<\/strong>. It will give you a good <strong>starting point<\/strong> to talk about if asked &#8216;Why are you interested in this company?&#8217;, but also save you from looking a <strong>fool<\/strong> when asked your opinion on some new development of theirs you&#8217;ve never even heard about<\/li>\n<li>Find out what their <strong>values<\/strong> are. In the interview, use their <strong>buzzwords<\/strong> to reflect that your values are a fit with those of the company; this is so important to them. Also, at the end of the day you\u2019re educating yourself on what life is like in this company and whether you\u2019d actually <strong>like<\/strong> to work for them!<\/li>\n<li>You could even look up the boss&#8217;s <strong>LinkedIn<\/strong> page to gain an in-depth grasp of who they are and <strong>what they stand for<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Read and re-read the job description and make sure you fully understand it<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Not only should you be well-versed on the company itself, but also on your<strong> specific role up for offer<\/strong>. Make sure you fully understand what will be expected of you!<\/li>\n<li>When asked to describe yourself, use the key <strong>skills<\/strong> that they mentioned in the job description. Be subtle about it though\u2014don\u2019t just recite their advert back to them or you will come across as <strong>in<\/strong><strong>genuine<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>2. Turn up on time<\/h2>\n<p>You\u2019d think this goes without saying if you are looking to make a good impression but feedback says 30% of employers biggest pet peeve is a <strong>candidate turning up late<\/strong>, meaning it must happen relatively often. Don&#8217;t be that guy!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/46388-min.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4067\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/46388-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"283\" height=\"424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/46388-min.jpg 283w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/46388-min-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 283px) 100vw, 283px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Specific tips:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Don\u2019t be<strong> too late<\/strong> or <strong>too early<\/strong>. For most places, arriving around <strong>10 minutes before<\/strong> your interview is considered perfect timing. Any earlier than that and you\u2019ll be in the way while they\u2019re setting up for you. Any later and you\u2019ll be frazzled and <strong>unfocused<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Practice the route<\/strong> beforehand especially if it\u2019s an area of town you\u2019re not too familiar with.<\/li>\n<li>On the day, <strong>allow lots of time<\/strong> for any unexpected delays. If you end up arriving super early &#8212; though this is not necessarily a bad thing \u2014 you could go and sit in a caf\u00e9 and gather your thoughts<\/li>\n<li>And if you are still running late on the day\u2014<strong>CALL<\/strong> and let the interviewer know in advance of time. Most interviewers will be forgiving if you call half an hour beforehand and say you\u2019re caught in terrible traffic; after all, this is out of your control. In a worst-case scenario, you could ask if it\u2019s possible to <strong>reschedule<\/strong> for another day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>3. Make a good first impression<\/h2>\n<p>This one is fairly self-explanatory, but <strong>body language<\/strong> is so important. Regardless of how perfect your answers to their questions may be, if you are slouching in your chair, nervously fiddling with your hands or compulsively yawning, no recruiter is going to be impressed.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Specific tips: <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dress suitably for the occasion. Always opt for <strong>smarter<\/strong> rather than casual!<\/li>\n<li>Give a firm hand shake, make sufficient eye contact and <strong>smile<\/strong> a lot<\/li>\n<li>Try and not fiddle anxiously. Of course, this is easier said than done and naturally you are nervous. But by keeping your <strong>fidgeting<\/strong> under wraps, you will physically appear more confident and competent, and this will have an impact on your mental calm too<\/li>\n<li>Avoid distraction by <strong>turning off your phone<\/strong> before you even enter the building. This tells the interviewer that they are the priority. It\u2019s just a basic sign of respect, plus it can be incredibly distracting to both you and the interviewer if it goes off<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/20140602_SLIDE_POWER_OFF_IPHONE20140602_0020-min.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4072 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/20140602_SLIDE_POWER_OFF_IPHONE20140602_0020-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"399\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/20140602_SLIDE_POWER_OFF_IPHONE20140602_0020-min.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/20140602_SLIDE_POWER_OFF_IPHONE20140602_0020-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/20140602_SLIDE_POWER_OFF_IPHONE20140602_0020-min-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/20140602_SLIDE_POWER_OFF_IPHONE20140602_0020-min-624x416.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 399px) 100vw, 399px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>4. Ask questions<\/h2>\n<p>It is really off-putting for interviewers to ask a candidate if they have any questions and get a blank face and a \u201c\u2026No, not really\u201d in reply. This in itself is the <strong>final test<\/strong>! Up to 30% of employers have reported that asking no questions is their<strong> biggest interview no-no<\/strong>. To a recruiter, no questions means no interest, which of course is not what they want. Ask questions that reflect why you\u2019re <strong>drawn to the company<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Some great question ideas could be:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">To indicate you\u2019re interested in career progression:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What could I do to <strong>impress<\/strong> you in the first 3 months?<\/li>\n<li>In the best of all possible worlds, what would you like me to <strong>accomplish<\/strong> in three\u00a0months? In a year? In five\u00a0years?<\/li>\n<li>What\u00a0makes someone <strong>successful<\/strong> in this organization?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Checking if you\u2019re a good fit for the company:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What would the <strong>perfect<\/strong> <strong>employee<\/strong> for this job look like for you?<\/li>\n<li>What do you think are the most important <strong>qualities<\/strong> for someone to <strong>excel<\/strong> in this role?<\/li>\n<li>Will I be <strong>mentored<\/strong> or be a mentor?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Taking an interest in the interviewer themselves:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How long have you worked here, and what do you <strong>like<\/strong> most about this organization?<\/li>\n<li>Where would you like this company to be in five years\u2019 time?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Generally useful questions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How would you describe a <strong>typical day and week<\/strong> in this position?<\/li>\n<li>What is the <strong>dress<\/strong> <strong>code<\/strong>?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Questions about the post-interview process:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What is the <strong>next step<\/strong> in this process?<\/li>\n<li><strong>When<\/strong> can I expect to hear from you?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Another good tip is to <strong>make notes throughout the interview<\/strong> and ask <strong>questions<\/strong> about specific things that were <strong>mentioned<\/strong>, as this shows you were attentive and are taking a real interest in the discussion you had. Whatever you ask, make sure it&#8217;s not something you should know the answer to already!<\/p>\n<h2>5. Follow up well<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>A<strong> thank you<\/strong> goes such a long way, especially for an interviewer who has spoken to <strong>dozens<\/strong> of candidates, and this could help you stand out from the crowd. Plus, it\u2019s just a generally <strong>pleasant<\/strong> thing to do for someone who has given up their time for you.<\/li>\n<li>Ask for <strong>feedback<\/strong>. This might be the <strong>most<\/strong> <strong>important<\/strong> part of the whole process. I cannot stress enough how vital this is! Regardless of whether you eventually get the job or not, feedback is invaluable for your <strong>personal and career development<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s really a win-win situation: the positive feedback will be something you can retain for future job interviews and repeat. The negative (read: <strong>constructive<\/strong>) feedback will tell you the things you are doing wrong, more often than not things you hadn\u2019t even realised yourself, that are putting employers off.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/job_interview_woman-smiling-min.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4069 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/job_interview_woman-smiling-min-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"521\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/job_interview_woman-smiling-min-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/job_interview_woman-smiling-min-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/job_interview_woman-smiling-min-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.jobboardfinder.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/job_interview_woman-smiling-min-624x416.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 521px) 100vw, 521px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Whatever you do,<strong> stay calm, focused <\/strong>and<strong> confident<\/strong> and you should do just fine. <strong>Good luck!<\/strong><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interviews are a BIG deal.
