How To Get Better In Job Interviews?

To be better in anything, you read up, you ask the experts and you practise. So are job interviews.

Read up

Grab any book that contains the magic words "job interviews". You won't go any wrong. The reason is simple: the Do's and Don't's of job interviews had remained pretty unchanged over the years. The medium or tools used in applying a job or getting your talent noticed may have changed but the things to look out for by an interviewer to qualify a candidate did not change very much.

10 Things I look For When I Interview Candidates

Ask the experts

People used to complain the trouble of getting an expert advice. It's not as accessible in the past. But today, it's totally a different story. The advance of technology and the recent upsurge of social networking sites allow you to access almost anyone on this planet. And to top it all, these so-called experts are only too pleased to share their tips and ideas with you. Blogs sprouting everywhere is a testimony of how generous and willing people are in sharing their expertise.

Practise

Nothing beats the real thing albeit role-play with a friend (get a HR friend, if possible). Not everyone agrees that you should attend an interview merely for the sake of practising but if you are short listed for one that you are not sure why you've applied in the first place, what the heck, go for it anyway!
