• PRESENTATION
  Present yourself properly clean, dressed up for the interview and during interview you should stay focused. Remember that what you say is not always material but how you say and present yourself has a great impact.

• KNOWLEDGE

Getting prepared will reduce your anxiety. Knowledge about yourself – your strengths, weaknesses, goals, skills, etc are also very important.

• CONFIDENCE
  Interview is not only a measure of your knowledge but also of your personality and how you can handle pressures. Maintain your composure and don’t appear to be nervous or relaxed even if you find yourself uneasy at any point. Maintain professionalism in your replies.

• BE CANDID
  When you want to learn more about your job position or the organisation don’t hesitate in asking questions. It proves that you are keen in the job/ organisation. You may prepare a list of such questions. If you don’t understand a question, don’t hesitate to get it repeated.
