Interview Skills – What to Do During the Interview

Be confident – introduce yourself giving a firm handshake, smile and act with poise.
Look and feel comfortable – when asked to sit down, take a seat facing the interviewer.
Be attentive – sit straight and look directly at the interviewer but not staring.
Try to appear calm and composed – it is understandable to be nervous but try to control nervous impulses..
Speak clearly – watch your grammar and explain your answers but avoid going off topic.
Show enthusiasm – avoid airing complaints about past employers.
Ask relevant questions – you’re allowed to clarify some points but avoid lengthy discussions. Time is precious and the interviewer may have other appointments.
