As a short meeting, the interview may decide whether our efforts in the past few years have paid off or not, and also decide the career development height that the applicant can achieve in the future. So in such a short period of time, how should we achieve the desired results? What mistakes should you avoid as a candidate?
As an applicant, first of all, we need to design every link of the interview, so that we can minimize the risk of details. The first is to apply for the position of the company to fully understand the information, recommendations can be on the company’s website to understand relevant information, and discuss some of the company’s professional platform or social media accounts to view the company described in the network platform are consistent with the descriptions in their own, also need to look at their information such as there have been no legal proceedings. In this process, candidates need to understand the company’s corporate culture, values, and other information in detail. The act of making this message “help avoid the act of making a good or bad answer” during an interview. The second is to prepare in advance for the questions that the interviewer may ask to ensure that the risk of bias is minimized. Usually, the interviewer’s questions revolve around the following characteristics: “Do you have the necessary skills for the job? Do you have the mindset and motivation necessary to do this job well? Do you have a good culture with the organization you are interviewing for?” This is also most enterprises are more concerned about the problem. And the ineffective interview behavior is the lack of detailed understanding of the company and the job, which will directly lead to the failure of the interview. My first interview took place without adequate preparation. I attended a job fair for summer interns organized by Amazon. Finally, I failed in the interview and had difficulty speaking during the interviewer’s questions several times. After this failure, I created a document that recorded the process of answering most of the interviewer’s questions and the answers in order to ensure that my interview answers were effective.
There are still little things that can change the interviewer’s view of us in a short time, such as taking short notes on the interviewer’s answers and choosing the right suit for the interview. One of the things that are often overlooked is the ability to build a good relationship with other candidates. Maintaining this allows the interviewer to feel that the candidate fits in well with the group. In general, the decisive factor of an interview is likely to be in these details, because the impact of these details will make the interviewer have some bias.
From the perspective of the interviewer, they should build a reasonable quality model according to the company’s employment standards. Secondly, according to the recruitment requirements of specific positions, the appropriate qualities are selected from the quality model as the main contents of the interview stage, and the interview question bank is designed according to the specific requirements of the positions. In these normal interview procedures, the interview should always be conducted without personal bias against the candidate, because some biases may affect the behavior of the interviewer. This can lead to missing out on potential people who are a good fit for the company due to ineffective personal biases.
