There is a saying that
says “practice makes perfect.” I believe with anything that you want perfected,
whether it be a singing performance, a skit role, or playing in a band,
practicing is a key component to perfection. Interviewing is also a skill that
can be perfected with practice over time. Interviewing does not come natural
for everyone, but very few people practice so that they are prepared before the
interview is conducted.
Preparation before an interview is
important because it can help to reduce stress and anxiety and you can now
begin to boost your confidence. By having confidence,
you will perform better in an actual interview. These are the
following things that you can do to prepare. First start with writing down a
list of commonly asked questions. Secondly, prepare to answer the questions,
especially the questions that are considered uncommon, such as “If you were a tree (or animal) what kind of tree
(animal) would you be?”
To identify areas where you
can improve, you have to get an outside opinion. Mock interviews are a
good way for someone that does a lot of interviewing to assess your
performance. The interviewer should select the questions so you do not
know what to expect. This will force you to improvise as you would in a
real interview. The interviewer can then assess the impression you give.
The feedback you receive will be invaluable to your interview performance and
your job search.
when i got my first job at michaels arts and craft, i had to look up on youtube what type of questions was asked in the interview and its a good thing i done that because it made me feel confident and comfortable when answering the questions because i was prepared and i got the job on the spot
