How to Impress in an Interview - Avoid This Common Mistake! | Bite Sized Tips |

So you got the interview… but now what?
How do you impress enough to actually get the job?
Performing well in your interview is ESSENTIAL if you want to be considered for the role.
The BIGGEST mistake people make when it comes to interviews is that they focus too much on themselves… but in an interview it’s not really about you, it’s about what the company you’re interviewing for WANTS IN YOU.
In this short video, I share three things to remember when it comes to the interview, to make sure you impress the interviewing panel enough to get the job.
1. Stand out from others by preparing specific examples that highlight your strengths and achievements.
2. Ask insightful questions to keep the interview flowing and make it seem more organic.
3. Interview them. Have some questions up your sleeve that you can ask, about the culture, challenges or anything else important to you.
What’s your favourite interview tip? Share it with me in the comments!
And good luck with your next interview!

Good advice, not just for interviews, but about life in general too - we always think everything is about us! It's so much easier when you realise everybody is the star of their own movie, and life works better if we pan out to see the bigger picture, of which we are a part.

Great tips! Actually, this hits two birds with one stone. 1) you appear genuinly interested in them by asking questions and 2) you throw the ball to their side of the court by switching the focus of the interview from you to them. Simple and effective! 👏🏻

Interviewer : * starts to ask questions Me : Why are you interviewing me ? Interviewer: congrats, you are selected !

[@MrDipdangadhvi]

I take hundreds of interviews every year to select for so many positions in our company. We in our panel dont like it when someone starts interviewing our company during the conversation,, we give separate time to every candidate after our questions are over, asking, ' our questions are over you can ask anything if you want to'. And then actual interview starts. Because results are more depended on questions they ask, It gives us clear idea the actual mental state and priorities in a candidate's mind. Ofcourse their answers play an important role in the judgement but questions they ask gives us what are they looking for in our company. Academic capabilities plays very nominal role in the result of an interview. So my advice is wait for right moment to ask questions.

[@pritalpawdeyeragi241]

Rightly said sir.

[@ShadeZahrai]

Those who rely on looks for a successful career won't get very far. While Before I started my company I spent 10 years working at major corporations. I had to work very hard, complete an MBA, do extra courses, deliver outstanding results and volunteer extra time in order to advance my career. It's unfortunate when a people think that success comes easy and they overlook all the years of hard work and dedication that's required.

[@abhishekghosh4384]

@@ShadeZahrai that's so true! Halo effect can work both ways, on one hand it may help a good looking person form a good first impression, on the other hand it can also make people assume that you have achieved your success solely on the basis of looks. Unfortunately average people like us may take it for granted that life will be easier for good looking people, when the reality can be far from that.

[@Theddyfield]

@@vminhope3040 I think instead of asking them what would you like to.know first, we must do our part of the research and know how to prioritise what is relevant to the job and company and impress them. Otherwise we look a bit less prepared. We need to pitch ourselves for the job and therefore highlight what we are capable of. Not sound clueless.

[@musaddiqali1]

Yeah, I have experienced that. The interview almost ends badly for the applicant if the interviewer themselves have to ask, "Do you have any questions?". Then if the interviewee says, "No." That's almost like the final nail in the coffin. Then the interviewer usually say, "We will let you know if you are selected." That's what an interviewer usually says here in India, if you are rejected or if they are not yet sure about you.

[@tushar4652]

So what you think brother should one say yes for the ques? And what should one ask on this?

[@musaddiqali1]

@@tushar4652 If you have no questions to ask to the interviewer, then the interviewer will think that you are there just to get the job, but you aren't curious about the job that you are attending the interview for. Also the interviewer may think that you are not curious about the company also. So, you should just ask some questions pertaining to the actual work you will do in the company, like say, if you are a programmer or web developer, ask what and what kind of projects are going on in the company. Ask, how many teams are there working on any given project, and how many employees per team? Basically just be genuinely curious about the company and the job position that you are interviewing for, questions will naturally come into your mind.

I am very worried about will i get a job or not i studied from very basic college (Without any practicality in IT). Would i be able to do it in IT? I don't have anyone who can guide me in this regard. I don't even have enough knowledge about it.

[@musaddiqali1]

@@tushar4652 That's a very tough question to answer. What career you choose depends on where your interests are. I just gave an example of programming as that's what I am interested in. Try to explore everything and anything that you have even a little interest in, try to see what you like and what you don't like. Explore a lot on whatever you choose, just try to learn and be curious and hungry for knowledge.

One of my friends got into IT after taking coaching for the front end. And he is now earning 8000/month. What u think is it good for the fresher? I am literally confused where to go.

They don't like multi skilled people and they don't like clever people off the estates or blocks on government assistance.
