Want to Make a Solid Impression at Your Next Job Interview, Ready for Anything They Might Ask? Read On.

Even professionals who are experienced and successful with job interviews get nervous about approaching interviews.

By far, interviews are the most involved and unpredictable part of the job application process.

Whereas the resume and cover letter are rather self-contained, the interview can spread out over several engagements. And it’s not always clear what to expect.

Interviews are all about detail management. Doing well here goes far beyond the things you think are relevant to the position you’re applying for.

For instance, how you shake the hiring manager’s hand can make a big difference, as can how you make eye contact and how much you smile. While they may seem trivial, they can affect the interviewer’s judgment of you and color the rest of your answers.

Of course, first and foremost, the primary objective of the interview process is demonstrating that you are the best fit for the role and company culture.

To determine this, the company will have several different interviews with you, talking with different employees. Knowing what the objectives of each stage are and the interests of who you’re talking to are critical for giving the best answer.

If you are successful with the interview process, you’ll get an offer with an opportunity to negotiate the details. This step critically determines your compensation and benefits. And it establishes an important precedent for your relationship with the company.

While true or not, the reality is that hiring decisions are heavily influenced by intangibles such as how you present yourself. And by paying attention to a few extra details, you can make sure that the focus of the interview is on how well qualified you are for the role.
