Quick Tips Avoid Common Interview Mistakes
Mistake #1 Getting Too Personal
Your interviewers may be friendly and the interview may seem like a casual conversation. However, always remember to stick to relevant topics and not derail to personal matters.
Mistake #2 Showing Negativity
You may not agree with your previous stakeholders or role but avoid making negative comments about them. Instead, try to focus on the positive areas and how you managed through it.
Mistake #3 Lack of Preparation
Always invest your time in researching the company and the role. Know your CV! Be prepared to answer any questions related to it. Don't forget to prepare questions - this shows your interest in the role and if the role fits you.
