Etiquettes That Affect Interviews

By Joseph Jacob


Our day-to-day lives are highly affected by various etiquettes. We follow different etiquettes when we involve in different works. When considering job interviews, they are also affected by a set of etiquettes. Interview etiquettes are very helpful to carry out interviews correctly and effectively. No one can define a particular set of etiquettes which are affected for interviews. However, there are etiquettes that can be clearly identified as interview etiquettes. Knowing them will help job applicants to face effectively for interviews and gain better results. They also help to increase the confidence when attending for an interview.

There are different etiquettes for different interview stages. Some should be followed prior to the interview; some should be followed throughout the interview; and some should be followed after the interview. Learn them and be a successful job seeker.

Etiquettes to follow before the interview

* Collect all the components you should carry to the interview such as your CV and credentials. Discover details about the job and the company.

* Have a shower and be fresh before going to the interview. Do not eat anything that produces bad breathing. Avoid smoking. Any bad breathing or smell can absolutely ruin your picture.

* Select a suitable dress to wear for the interview. Do not select fancy dresses. Professional outfits are the most suitable.

* Come to the interview early.

* Switch off your cell phone before the interview.

Etiquettes which should be followed throughout the interview

* Make all your movements with total confidence.

* Use solid handshakes. Poor handshake represents a poor character.

* Use firm and steady handshakes because poor ones will signify poor character.

* Keep good eye contact with the person who interviews you. Look directly at the individual you talk.

* Do not request any drink or food. Do not ask to go to the bathroom. Such activities can affect negatively to your image. Make sure to fulfill those needs before the interview.

* Always show that you are very interested in the job opening and the organization.

* Display your interest during the whole interview.

* Pay attention to the question they ask. Ask to repeat the question, or ask additional explanation if you didn't hear it clearly or didn't understand the question they asked. Do not do it all the time. Then, the interview may think that you not in proper attention.

* Always talk after the interviewer. Do not try to talk before he ends his speech. Do not ask stupid questions.

Etiquettes after the interview

* Thank honestly to everyone on the interview board after the interview.

* Deliver a correspondence to the organization after a few times by thanking to the chance given.

These are some important things to remember about recruitment online.
