Guide job interview
The job interview is for both the employer and the job applicant and a way to get information about each other. You need a job and the employer need personnel.

Prepare the interview carefully and don’t leave anything to chance.

Preparation

1.Be in time
If you come too late to this important meeting will you not do so in other situations as well? Look the place up on a map, be there a day before so you are sue where to go. Be there 10-15 min before, not longer.

2.Clothing
Show that you thing this interview is an impotent occasion. Dress up like job need and then a little more, you work in a shirt? Where a tie as well. Clean cloths and shined shoes.

2.Hygiene
Clean, trimmed beard/hair. No to much perfume or aftershave. Don’t eat garlic or drink alcohol the day before.

3.Jewelry/Tattoo
Don’t where any thing outstanding, you want the employer focusing on you, not your nose ring.

-If boy and ring in the ear – don’t were it.
-If girl and pearl in the nose - don’t where it.
-Tattooed forearms - where a long sleeved shirt.

5. Language
Neatly, no curses, avoid slang

6.Well rested

7. Car
If its dirty, park it a block away.

8. Behavior
When you meat you employer where a smile on your face and give him/her a firm handshake.
No to hard but no to soft either. Sit straight up in the chair. Look like you are interested.


-----------------
The most common reason why you fail in an interview.
•Uncertain behavior.
•Inappropriate clothing, hairdo etc.
•Talk to much.
•Talk to little.
•To little information about the company
•Nervous body language.


Good luck!

What makes anyone eligible for writing a guide on the internet? What proof do you have that anyone here actually does what they say they do? The "guide" is not very impressive, no, but most of the info is accurate and is based mostly on common sense. Why would you question that?

Probably because of the awfulness of the guide. If one cannot write about something, their expertise is naturally questioned.

hmmm...first post is a guide, that's pretty neat. the general info is there although i think this guide is lacking. a little more detail could have been included such as how to answer typical interview questions, the most common being "So Mr./Ms. X, tell me about yourself..."

but i guess if i were to have an interview (and have no prior interview exp) and read this guide, it would have helped a bit.

Wow. I was just on my way out for a job interview I had secured, and decided to check to see if there were any guides that could give me the edge. Sure enough I see this gem in the rough of the General forum. Obscured by what are probably terrible threads not worth a fraction of my time, I almost missed it. I devoured the information within like a defiler consuming his own kind to sate its lust for energy. Armed with the knowledge found within this guide I marched into that interview with my head held high, and I walked out as the new Chairman and CEO of Men's Wearhouse and I owe it all to you svonko.

This guide is terrible. What you really SHOULD do in a job interview is what George Costanza did. Be completely frank, honest, and utterly apathetic to the whole affair. Do the opposite of any rational human beings actions, and the job will certainly be yours.

lol........ what a shitty guide.

This is something that everyone intuitively knows.

I thought this was going to be something cool, like great answers to common questions, or preparation for technical interviews. Or tips on writing a resume/cover letter. Or how to handle yourself during a phone interview.

It seems like you haven't been to an interview before....
