Interview Tips

Here are some tips that will help you face an interview with confidence.

• Plan to arrive 10 minutes near the beginning. This will give you ample time to gather your thoughts and make a quick trip to the washroom.
• Greet the interviewer by his or her last name.
• Let the interviewer lead the conversation. However, you must try to get him/her to describe the position and duties to you early in the interview.
• When asked: "Tell me about yourself?", you must focus your answers on your background and a few professional and personal accomplishments.
• Show enthusiasm: This you can do by using verbal and non-verbal cues like appropriate body language.

  • Tell me about yourself.
  • Tell me about your background and accomplishments.
