In these economic times, when global crisis has not taken its toll, unemployment is still high. And getting a job becomes competitive, if not really difficult. After filing an application, you can expect for a phone call with a short interview there and then. And if you get lucky enough, you can land on a personal job interview. To reach this phase is already difficult and to hurdle the job interview takes a lot of talent, guts and knowledge.

Questions during the interview are not really difficult, in fact most of them are test of common sense and IQ. It would not require you to learn something which you may not yet be familiar with. What you have to achieve is get an impression of your worth in the eyes of the interviewer.

Here are some tips to get going in your job interview – and hopefully land on the job applied for.

The first tip that an interviewee should know is the time schedule. This tip may be very elemental but this is often neglected and forgotten – maybe taken for granted. It is better to arrive early than to keep the interviewer waiting for even a fraction of a second. This will be one big minus to your qualification. So on the date of your big day, you have to prepare early, giving ample time allowance for your travel time. By this time, you should already have calculated how much time if will take you to reach the venue. And you should give enough time for eventuality of encountering traffic. Neither should you be too early to report for your schedule. So, if you arrive at the place too ahead of time, then maybe you can first freshen at the wash room or anywhere else nearby. Compose yourself.

The second tip is dress code. You should dress appropriately. It is always assumed that the correct dress code is business formal attire. For the male specie, a long sleeved shirt dress with neck tie, formal pants and shinny leather shoes will be the prescribed outfit. However, there are times that you need to put on a coat. There is no harm in bringing along a formal coat. For the ladies, you have also to dress-up in a business formal with blazers and pump shoes. Never report for an interview with unkempt hair. And again, never over do your make-up and keep your jewelry in control. Do not wear strong perfume, maybe just a light scent. You do not want to be branded as over-doing yourself. This will be a negative point.

And lastly, know something about the company or the person who will handle your interview. Keep your eye contact with him or her and show your interest without going to the extent of being arrogant. You should ask some surface questions and in some little way you have to make an impression which can set you apart from the other applicants. Show genuine interest.

If you are to report for your job interview, remember punctuality, dress code and knowledge of the company. But there are companies now that do the job matching. In cases like this, job search is easier if you go to companies that do job matching. You can even be coached on proper handling of interview.
