How to give a job-winning interview

The way to crack a job interview is not just by giving answers, but the ‘right’ answers. Here are some important tips on how to get it right

Create a strong resume. Build a compelling case on why you fit the job role:
The process of giving a job winning interview starts by forming a strong resume. A resume works as an entrance test to get an interview. A person’s resume should be concise and convey more in fewer words. For example, instead of saying, “I am an exceptional guitarist”, one can say, “I was the lead guitarist of an award winning rock band back in college”.

Do your primary research on your potential employer
Every recruiter expects you to have some basic knowledge about the organization and the industry that you are contemplating joining. Hence, it is advisable to do a primary research before going. After all, the employer has a lot of information about the applicant, so it’s only polite if the applicant evens the score.

Highlight your strengths & experience
During an interview it is important to highlight one’s strengths and experiences that appropriately fit the needs of the role. The employer will be assessing the interviewee’s fitment with the job role, and in order to respond appropriately, one needs to understand the specific needs and expertise relevant to the position one is applying for. Never criticize your current employer: There is a saying ‘whatever goes around, comes back,’ it is never helpful to criticize your current employer and cite that as one of the reasons for changing your job. You may be talking about your prospective employer the same way in the coming years. It is helpful to focus on the lack of challenges in current job fit not being in line with your career aspirations, want of greater responsibilities and the learning opportunities your new employer offers as some of the reasons for seeing a change.

Be confident
One should always remember to be fiercely confident, show willingness and enthusiasm for the job and appear as a genuine person who loves what he/she does.

Prepare, Prepare, Prepare
Before the critical day it is helpful to prepare by reading your resume critically, reading up your prospective employer and speaking to your consultant in detail about the job & employer. Remember opportunity knocks only once, better be prepared to interview with it.

Another question which haunts candidates during the interview is the question related to why should the company you. Through this question a candidate can tell about his past work experience which can be considered relevant to current applied job. You can also state about the responsibilities that you undertook at your previous job, so that the interviewer can get information about your capacity as well as capability. Questions regarding your strengths can be expected for a job interview. Interviewers question about a person’s strength so that they can get to know whether his skills is suitable for the job or not. All the answers related to your strengths should be associated with an example so that your interviewer can understand that you are giving real facts. After stating the strengths the interviewer might also ask you about your weaknesses. This is one question which confuses everybody because they feel that if their weaknesses are mentioned then they might get rejected in the interview. Therefore one should pick out their weaknesses in such a manner so that it displays their strengths. For example, when you are asked about your weaknesses then you can tell that you are overtly dedicated to your work. This will imply that you give your hundred percent to your work. Hence your weaknesses should be mentioned in a manner through which positive aspects about you get highlighted. Facts about career goals are often asked during the interview, so that a candidate can be judged on the basis on his career plans. At times, companies might look for candidates whom they can groom for senior level positions, and it is important for them to know about their career plans so that they can decipher whether they will be suitable for the position or not. For people who are looking for a new job are always questioned as to why they had left their previous job.
