READING
What would you like to do after you graduate from high school? (You) Apply to a college? Find a part-time or full-time job? Either
way, you will probably have to go to an interview. How well you do in an
interview may determine whether you are accepted by a school or hired by a company. Therefore, it is
important to learn interview skills as early as possible.
Here are some tips that may help ensure that you have a successful interview.
|
1. Make a good first impression.
Never be late for an interview. If possible, (you) arrive
at the interview place a few minutes early. Also (: Moreover), make sure (that) you dress appropriately to show that you are taking the interview seriously.
During an interview, sit with your back straight and (with your) feet on the floor. Try
to smile and make eye contact with
the interviewer. This makes you look sincere (: honest) and confident (: sure). Now (: Currently/Nowadays), you are
ready (: all set; well-prepared) to answer (: reply to/respond to) the interviewer’s questions!
|
|
2. Prepare in advance. (Make a full/good preparation for the interview beforehand.)
Common (: Usual) interview questions are as follows: “What do you know about us?” or “Why do
you want (: long for) this job?” So (: Thus/Hence/Therefore), (you) find out (: discover) as much as you can (: as much as possible) about the department or company beforehand (: in advance; previously). Answers which display a broad knowledge of the department or company can show that you
have fully prepared for the interview. In addition (: Additionally/Besides/Also/Plus/Moreover/On top of that/Furthermore), you will be able to ask
good questions when (: as) you are presented (: given/displayed/shown/revealed) with the common last question: “Do you
have any questions for us?”
|
|
3. Practice talking about yourself.
Most interviewers demand that interviewees
introduce themselves at the beginning of an interview. Thus, prepare yourself
to talk about your education, strengths, and previous experience. It is highly recommended that you find a list of questions related to these topics on the Internet. Then, try to
answer them at home, especially those tricky
questions like “What is your biggest weakness?”
or “How do you deal with people you don’t
like?”
|
|
4. Demonstrate
good social skills.
Your behavior, attitude, and personality will be
closely observed during an interview. Don’t just think that education,
experience, and practical skills will be sufficient
to be successful. In fact, social skills are usually considered one of the
basic requirements for any school or job. Keep in mind that the professors or employers who are
interviewing you are expecting to see someone who is easy to get along with. Thus, to show that you are capable of fitting
in with other people, try your best to appear friendly and positive. Also, avoid making negative
comments when you answer
questions.
|
|
5. Learn from your experience.
Finally, whether you are accepted or not, try to
learn from the experience. Be sure to review
what happened during the interview and find out what your advantages and disadvantages were.
That way, you will be able to improve your performance when you have another
interview in the future.
|
If you follow the advice above, you will surely enhance your chances of doing well in
an interview and then be one step closer to your dream school or company. Good
luck!
