Ahead of going for your interview.
When you get the call that says we need you to come along for interview. Consider what things you could be asked by the interviewers. And try to be as natural as you can be, if you pretend to be something you are not people soon see through you. When you answer any questions on the interview answer honestly its no good saying you have particular grades if you don’t, most companies check.
What do you feel you can offer the job?
Consider your strength’s and negatives. With positives try not to appear arrogant with your answers, talking in the third person is a handy way of appearing modest but positive in your answers “My friends tell me…..”, “My work colleagues say that im…….”. If you are asked about your negatives turn things into positives by saying “collegues tell me that I work to hard…..” or “that im very meticulous…….”
What are your reasons for wanting to work here?
After you have looked at their website or spoken to someone that works there, you will know what it is about the business that you like and how well you feel you would fit in there. Saying that the business is the place you would like to further your career and would very much enjoy the challenge of the role.
If you are asked, Why you are leaving your present role?
Don’t be negative about your current employer, this might make the potential employer feel you are a troublesome employee. Use words like “ready for a new challenge” to let them know you are moving forward with your career.
If you are looking for a new job or employment why not try a recruitment agency. You can find one in your local area by typing in phrases like “Jobs Bournemouth” or “Jobs Dorset” into a search engine like Google.
