Don'ts @ an Interview

There are Pointers on what ONE  must do while preparing for an Interview:


Preparation for an Interview:

1. Do Not Ignore the Call
2. Acknowledge straight away
3. Answer or call back to Phone Call
4. If you are unable to attend, give Genuine reasons, No Employer is sitting Idle
5. Do Not arrive late 
6. Do a TEST RUN to the Venue - Time Calculation and Location Identification 
7. Be 15 Min ahead of the schedule time
8. Don't Look Disheveled - Avoid Badly Dressed-Shirt Half Tucked in- Un Polished / Faded Foot wear / Un shaven look
9. Don't walk in EMPTY HANDED, take your certificates 
10. Be Brief & to the point
11. Say 2-3 lines of your DREAM JOB
12. Don't Keep your phone switched off, keeping looking often, keep in silent mode
13. Don't speak badly about your ex-employer-it tells badly of your behavior & you don't know, if any of the Panel Interviewers are friends / relatives 
14. Don't be Rude or Arrogant to the panelists 
15. Don't under value your self, it will highly impact on your pay
16. Don't be desperate to take the OFFER, take some time to think & revert back within stipulated
17. Don't ask personal information about interviewers, eg: attending interview through mutual reference. This will affect other Panelists 

Finally:

Reports suggest that despite having adequate academic skills for employment candidates fail miserably when it comes to communication and other necessary soft skills. If you need to sell your self, package yourself better than the candidate behind you in queue.
