My mom used to tell me "remember, they're just people." This helped me relax, be myself and be more conversational

i like the “pause” part, pause is so crucial in a conversation scenario thanks for the advice.

Thank you, Childish Gambino for helping me get a job.

So, basically tell them what they want to hear, be the person they want you to be, wear a mask.

Practice is key! Know the most common interview questions, drill them over and over (until you're sick of hearing your own voice) and know exactly how to connect your experience directly to the job description of the job you're applying to. Good luck to everyone with an upcoming interview!

I don't know why I get so anxious about this kind of stuff

[lurkzie]

Me: OK, I've got this 💪

My socially anxious self: Oh God, not like this

I'm just way too uncomfortable and anxious in an interview, and it's frustrating because I'm not like that once I'm working. I'm always prepared, but the interview of course ends up being nothing I prepared for. I had a situational interview today (I didn't know it would be only situational) for a school.. and they asked me how I would react to a school shooting situation. I was surprised inside, but outside stayed calm because that's important. I get why they're asking, but I'm like, lock the doors and make sure the kids are secured? Who knows how I did. I actually had a question about their safety protocols on my list, but decided I wasn't going to ask it because it seemed inappropriate.. so it surprised me when they said it first. I asked it in an interview at a hospital and they were very impressed that I was thinking ahead. I'm in the USA if you didn't already guess that. 2 interviews where the topic of a mass shooting situation came up -- and no, they weren't security jobs. I don't even care, really. I'm finishing my 2nd novel and finding myself an agent, then a cabin in the woods lol I can't take all this.

she looks just like scarlett johansson

I'm a graduating student now and planning to submit my resume on August 20 to different companies. With our situation today, in this pandemic, I really need to get a job. Wish me luck and to anyone who are going for their interviews! Be yourself, be confident and nailed it!

[louisjeffs]

Getting a job could not be easier. Simply be comfortable with people judging you on your clothes, gait, speech and eye contact in an environment completely alien to you. Remember to know the answer to every question before they are asked, and only ask the right questions. Remember that if you ace it, you still may not get the job for a reason the employer does not need to tell you. It's easy!

[gingercupid]

I am watching this because I just found out today that I will be interviewed for a position volunteering at a library. I am fourteen, and, of course, this isn't a real job, but I think that this will be a good experience for me, to be able to get a taste of what a real job interview looks like. These are some fantastic tips, and now I feel much more prepared. :D

[amriceleste]

Absolutely agree eye contact is key, and great advice on dealing with nerves

[wotintheworld]

How weird, no more handshakes. They are now extinct.

[starlord]

Thank you Jhon Legend for helping me find a job 🙏

Some people can be excellent at job interviews and crap at the job or some people can be crap at job interviews but great at the job they've applied for. I'm the latter.
And the there are those who are great at both, the job interview and the job.
I personally think that the question and answer part of the job interview should be abolished and what should happen is the candidate should be given a 2 week trial period. At the end of the 2 weeks, the manager would take you up to
his/her office and he/she will tell you if you're right for the job or you could say to the manager "Thank you for the trial period. I think that this is the perfect job for me." Or "Thank you for your time but I feel as if I'm not suited for this line of work"

Thanks for this stable structure to work from Indeed. The goal is to make an impression in your own words. Companies want to see for example what an employee would do in a bad situation, for instance...if a unhappy client/customer phone, are you going to be the employee making more confusion/problems or are you going to use your managing skill to make the best of the situation? Remember you need to keep the company's name high, as the company not only supplying you and your colleagues with an income, the company also support the economic infrastructure of your country/community and so fort. Also remember, not everything comes easy and being prepared and positive brings success...just think if you where the directive manager of the company? Etiquette never goes out of fashion. All of the luck to all. God bless.
