Job Interview Techniques and Advice

The job interview is one of the most important aspects of landing the job you want

, and good job interview technique is essential. It can often make or break your chances of getting the position you've always wanted. With so many people who may also be vying for a position these days, the fact that you were even called in says a lot about you. However, making a good first impression with the boss or person who does the hiring is just as important. Here are some practical tips to help your interview go smoothly, and raise your chances of being hired.

The first thing you need to do is make sure that you are familiar with the company. Doing some research ahead of time can help you greatly. Know what they stand for, what they do, and some of the aspects of the position you are being interviewed for.

You should always bring in important information that they would need in order to hire you. Identification, social security card, as well as certificates or credentials for any other specialized training. Sure you may have included this information on your resume, but a lot of employers want to look at documentation. For an example, if you are trying for a position as a fork lift operator, or some other heavy machinery, you operator's license is something you are going to need to bring in to prove that you really know how to run a forklift, or operate a dangerous piece of equipment. Anything you can think of that relates to this should also be included.

Now while all of this is important, one of the biggest aspects of the job interview process is how you speak and how you look. If you are some one who is used to using foul language or making jokes, never do this at a job interview. If the person interviewing you starts making jokes or swearing, this could be a test. It is better to be safe, then sorry. Communicate well, speak in clear, easy to understand sentences, and stay on point. You also need your conversation to flow; don't just be robotic about it.

Here are some really important tips about your appearance. You need to imagine yourself in the position of the employer. What are they going to look for in your appearance? Men should either be clean shaven, if it is a professional position, or have any facial hair neat and trimmed. Your hair should be clean and neatly worn. Your attire should say to the person hiring you that you are ready to walk out the door and onto the job right away. If you are looking for a working position, like an industrial worker, you should be wearing clothes that are appropriate. If you are going to be working in an office, a suit and tie is considered appropriate, and these should be neatly pressed.

For women: Do not wear much make up; wear just enough to accent your features. Hair should be casually worn, but not too fancy. Not a lot of jewelry or accessories are needed. You can wear either a dress or a women's business suit. Do not have an open blouse that reveals too much cleavage. You also don't have to have your blouse buttoned all the way up to the neck either. While there are an abundance of other job interview techniques, advice and tips, these are some of your most important.
