23、

The impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important. Some interviewers decide to give someone a job just in the first three minutes of the interview. They watch your appearance, attitude and gesture.

A friendly smile is important when you walk into the room. A smile shows a confident and positive attitude. When you introduce yourself, make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a hand-shake. Others don't.

Try to be as natural as possible. But take a look at your body language. The way you sit, walk, use your voice and show feelings on your face are all parts of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself. Are you feeling confident in yourself? Your abilities? Your interest in the job?

Speak clearly and loud enough. Show interest in your voice. When you speak, look at the interviewer. Also don't say bad things about yourself or the company you worked for before.

Listen to questions carefully. If you don't understand a question, ask the interviewer to say it again. "I am sorry, but I didn't catch that." "I am not sure what you mean."

Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. But they want you to try to control your nervousness. They want you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.

At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for his or her time. It's a good idea to send a short thank-you letter right after the interview, or send it by hand. Phone the company if you have not heard anything after one week. Ask if they have made a decision about the job.
