Tips for a Successful Interview

After making your way through the maze of job openings, the next stage is the most critical for job seekers the interview. Interviews can be made or broken within the first few moments. Here are a few suggestions that will help you stand out.

* Arrive a few minutes early. Being punctual makes a good first impression.
* Your appearance also can help make a great first impression. Its important to dress professionally for a job interview, even if the work environment is casual.
* Greet the interviewer with a handshake, and be confident and upbeat. Also, be sure to make frequent eye contact.
* Listen carefully to each question and ask the interviewer to repeat it if necessary. Always answer the question as directly as possible.
* Anticipate what questions the employer might ask. Be prepared to explain your work history (including any gaps in employment); how you have learned from previous jobs; your strengths and weaknesses; projects youve worked on that you are proud of; and why you would be a good fit for the company.
* Be prepared to ask questions. Its good to show your interest in the position by asking for more details about the job, such as everyday responsibilities of the position, opportunities for advancement or even questions about how current staff members work and interact with one another.
* At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for his or her time and ask for a business card. After the interview, send a brief thank you note to remind the employer about the special skills you can bring to the company.
