- DeniseConsider the interview from the employers perspective – what would you want to know about the candidates – e.Probably know that you can do the job by the interview stage – but not the will you & will you fit in?
- DenisePhone interviewMany large employers will use a phone screening interview to select candidates for a formal interview to be held in person. The phone interview may be focussed on obtaining more details about your experiences and skills. Or it could involve a number of behavioural-based questions.If you are given a time for your phone interview, make sure you are able to be in a quiet space, free of disruptions. Some good tips for phone interviews include standing during the interview, as this will make it easier to speak clearly (like you would giving a presentation to an audience); have your resume and other documents with you for easy reference; have a notepad and pen to record any important information.Should be scheduled by recruiter
- DeniseTips from careerfaqs.com.au Be preparedMake sure you do your research just as you would for any other job interview. Find out as much as you can about the company and think about possible answers to interview questions. Practise going through your answers, preferably with another person. One of the benefits of doing an interview over the phone is that you can have your resume and notes on standby to refer to when the pressure is on. Jot down things you would like to say but be careful not to read your answers or it will sound unnatural. Also have a pen and paper handy so you can keep track of any important things they say during the interview and write down any questions that you would like to ask at the end.Play the partWhile you don’t need to worry about which tie to wear or whether your shoes are polished, smartening yourself up can be an important way of psyching yourself into the right professional mentality. Have a shower, get out of your pyjamas and drag a comb through your hair – your head will be in a much better place for tackling those tricky interview questions! If you look professional, you are much more likely to feel and sound professional.Create a quiet environmentYour surroundings are just as important as the words you’re saying. No matter how brilliantly you answer every question thrown your way, the noise of blaring music, a TV, screaming kids or barking dogs will immediately detract from your professional image and be both distracting and annoying – and that’s not something any job seeker can afford. Find a quiet place where you won’t be distracted and make sure your mobile is turned off. Don’t conduct the interview on a mobile phone if possible – the sound quality can be poor and you might drop out or lose the connection. Have a glass of water handy in case your mouth gets dry, but don’t eat, unwrap food or guzzle drinks during your interview. The image of you chomping away on the other end of the line will leave a bad taste in the interviewer’s mind. Build rapportIt’s crucial for you to build rapport without the usual face-to-face tricks. Using the employer’s name during the course of the interview and smiling when you talk are the telephone equivalents of a firm handshake and eye contact, and will convey warmth and friendliness. Make sure you speak clearly and concisely as it can be more difficult to interpret a person without body language. Also try to make your tone vibrant and dynamic so the interviewer can feel your energy and enthusiasm. Follow upAt the end of the interview, ask any questions you may have about the job or company. Finish by thanking the interviewer for their time and say you hope to meet them in person. Follow up with an email of thanks to let them know you are keen and to keep yourself fresh in their mind.
- DenisePreparing for the interviewRead as much information as you can about the company, including annual reports, press articlesUse LinkedIn to view the profiles of the people who will be on the interview panel – this may help you understand their backgrounds and identify anything you have in common with themAt the interviewPlan to arrive at the interview location ten minutes before your interview – then find a quiet spot to collect your thoughts for 5 minutes before you ‘check in’.Greet the interviewer(s) by name, look them in the eye and firmly shake hands when introduced. Smile! Part of the reason the employer wants to meet you is to find out whether you will fit into the work group. A smile tends to indicate someone who is friendly and warm.Maintain eye contact. This shows confidence and sincerity. If you are being interviewed by more than one person, direct most of your answer to the person who asked the question but occasionally include the rest of the panel by glancing in their direction.If you don’t understand a question, seek clarification. You can do this by simply asking the interviewer to repeat the question or paraphrasing it back to them to ensure you have understood it correctlyAsk the questions you have prepared beforehand – and any others that have come to mind during the course of the interview.End the interview on a positive note by smiling, thanking the interviewer for their time and shaking their hand.
