Making an Impression II

2. Confidence is the Key
While you might be nervous about entering the interview and the questions they might throw at you, Don’t Be! One of the things we can’t stand the most is people who are overly nervous – and those who make a point of it! We can see you are feeling stressed, but telling us that “Oh sorry I’m so nervous” won’t help your cause at all.

3. Tell us Why?

The interviewer may have met many applicants during the week, and unless you stand out and make an impression, you will be just another face in the crowd. This is your opportunity to tell them WHY should they hire you? Here are a few tips from the best applicants we met:

Relate your answers to real-life examples. We LOVE this! Anyone can come in and tell us how they improve performance, but if you can give Specific, Realistic examples we will regard you much higher!

Don’t be afraid to Talk Yourself Up!

THIS IS YOUR TIME TO SHINE!
