So now that you have learnt how to prepare for an interview, this is what you need to do during the interview. Make sure that you arrive at least 15 minutes before the interview. If you are unexpectedly delayed, ensure you call your interviewer and explain that you will be late. Once you get to the office, greet the receptionist warmly and specify the reason you came and the name of the interviewer. Switch off your phone and wait to be called in the interview room. On entering the interview room, give a firm handshake and a warm smile to each of the interviewers. You should then give out copies of your documents to the interviewer from your folder. Be calm and sit upright without slouching on the chair. When the question starts, ensure that you answer questions as honestly as possible as interviewers can tell when you lie. Do not rush over our answers; the interviewer would prefer clear and well thought out answers. If you find an answer difficult, pause and think about it before blurting out the answer. The interviewer will ask about your understanding of the job and thus it is crucial that you know all the job duties and responsibilities. Answer questions with specific examples of what you did in your previous experience. For example Interviewer: What are your achievements as a sales person? Job Seeker: My sales target for last year was 9 lakh but I managed to do over 10 lakhs by calling more customers. If you feel like something is not clear, do not be afraid to ask a question. However ensure that you have intelligent questions that show you are truly interested in the employer and the opportunity presented. Do not speak negatively of your previous employers as this will look bad. Salary is always a sensitive issue so you should wait for the interviewer to bring it up. You should always mention the salary range that you are expecting. Do not lie about your current salary because they may ask proof of your payslip. Lastly, do not act desperate for the job rather, be confident and believe in your abilities. Employer will see this and hire you. Babajob.com is India’s largest job portal for the informal sector.
