How to pass a job interview?

· Be grown up businesslike, greet employer with respect, call him Mr. not Jack, Buddy, Paul, Charlie etc.
· Sit up straight in a chair; feet firmly on floor; look alert
· Think before answering a question, be polite, honest and frank.
· Have a guide sheet with you, listing all jobs, dates of work, wages, kinds of work you did, reasons you left.
· Be ready to show how your training and work experience will help you to get ahead on job you are asking for.
· Be confident, enthusiastic, but do not bluff, use good English and speak distinctly, do not talk too much
· Listen carefully; be polite and tactful above all do not get into any arguments with your prospective employer.
· The employer is only interested in only how well you will fit the job. Do not mention personal, home or money problem.
· If it seems you may not get a job, seek employer’s advice about other jobs that may come up with in the firm
· Send employer brief thank you letter immediately after interview.
