How To Get Through The Interview

Today searching jobs is very difficult because first, you need to apply to a minimum of hundreds of jobs, after applying you will receive a call only around 10 from which you will pass only 5 interviews. Then you are going to meet your employer in person or on a video call. Which you will fail, as a result, you don’t have a job.

This seems to be a long, stressful, and exhausting process. sometimes when you are not passing through the interviews and not getting interview calls, you lose self-confidence which creates self-doubt.

The self-doubt cancel’s all of the possibilities of getting another job.

That was a negative side, to convert this negativity to a new opportunity and grab a job which you deserve and like to have you must follow through the process:

Before the interview

There are few things which you must take care of before the interview.

• Learn new skills: If you want to find a new job, learning new skills. Learning skills is the only thing that will increase your worth. Find which all skills are required to increase your worth- plan-learn them one by one. Practice the skills you have learned to not let them fade out of your mind.
• Prioritize skills: To get the job, list the most required skills, and put them to learn them as a priority. Build some projects to show your work to the employer.
• Creating a resume: Creating a resume is a challenge for most people. To put your experience in the resume like you are talking to them, see here to create a job-hunting resume.
• Creating a LinkedIn profile: Today LinkedIn-Profile is very important if you want to exist for your employer. Your profile must say what you are, your activity must tell what you like and your skills must shoutout for your new learnings. This way you attract employer to you, now an employer will start coming to you. Set up your profile, see how to create LinkedIn-Profile here.
• Creating a professional network: Creating a professional network is an investment. This investment will help you find solutions to any problem including job. My advice, don’t just ask around for job reference, ask for knowledge sharing and experience.
• Applying for jobs: Don’t choose too much, apply every where-by every means. Try to get on any form of an interview to get experience and know what the employer is expecting from you.
• Practicing interview process: Even if you have decades of experience you are not feeling confident because you don’t practice. that's why you are failing, you must start practicing your interview process alone then only you will get the confidence and hence the Job!!!

During the interview

• Things to carry: During the interview, you must carry your resume so the interviewer can ask questions based on that. You must carry your certificates and the latest achievements card in the interview so that you can give them a living proof that you have taken a certificate and you have won on awards because of your habit to learn more.

Note: Hand over the documents to them, let them go through, and ask questions as they want- don’t make the mistake of taking everything off on the table and show one by one- it shows how desperate you are.

• Your presentation: Present yourself with professional dressing, well-practiced communication skills, and try to interact with the interviewer. See more here.
• How to speak in an interview: While you are in an interview, you need to be confident, you need to speak like you know what you are talking about, use your body to match with your conversation.
• A common question asked in the interview: Be prepared to get on the most common questions asked in the interview. You might not be able to predict other questions but these questions you can predict and prepare their answer so well to make the source of confidence.
• Practical tests: In interviews, you will have to go through the test, you need to be prepared for those taste. If you are facing a surprising question, answer them using your common sense, try not to send the question blank. On the other hand, don’t just make a fake story.

After the interview

• If you get a job: If you get a job, you immediately accept it and start working there without even thinking about what it will bring to you. Think, what is this organization offering you, what you are going to offer, what you will learn and experience, what is their culture and tradition. Then make a decision.
• If you don’t get a Job: If you don’t get a job, there is nothing to worry about. It’s because maybe the job is not suitable for you, get a job where the organization is suitable for you and you can learn- get valuable experience from it. try to target those organizations which are serving their employees, who’s is tradition is people first. Prepare according to your past interview experience to target your future organization and Thrive!!!
• Learn new skills: Even if you get a job or don’t get a job, you need to keep learning new skills because that is what going to increase your worth in the future. It is continuous learning and practice which will make you worth something.
• Improve yourself: Just technical skills won’t be enough, you need to learn the most basic skills like people skills, listening skills, speaking skills, leadership skills, problem-solving skills, planning & time management skills, work-stress management skills work, and personal time management skill and many more. These skills are the one who gives you the capacity to think, be productive, qualitative, and best in decision making- That's what increases your worth in career and personal life!!!
