Portfolio CBR understands
the importance of making the right impression during an interview. To
help jobseekers perform well, the specialist recruitment agency has
constructed a guide containing a hint, tips and information to think
about beforehand. With a wealth of experience in recruiting high calibre
candidates for head of reward, compensation consultant and reward manager roles, Portfolio CBR understands what employers are looking for during the application process.
Before any interview, read over the job description to get a full understanding of the position, and look at the company's website to gain some background information. Showing an interest in the business and its work is likely to impress an interviewer.
As first impressions are important, a professional demeanour and appearance will highlight your suitability for the job at hand. Get to the interview in plenty of time and if you are running behind schedule, contact the interviewer straight away and apologise upon arrival. Also, keep jewellery to a minimum and bring any papers in a handbag or briefcase. Also, make sure that your mobile phone is switched off before you arrive to prevent any nasty surprises.
As competency questions are becoming increasingly common in job interviews, make sure that you look at the job requirement in detail. Think about your previous employment and how it relates to the vacancy so that you can highlight your relevant skills and experience to the interviewer.
Remember to talk clearly, providing concise and direct answers. Also, try not to slouch or fidget, keeping your hands on your knees or the edge of the table. Of course, never refer to previous colleagues or employers in a negative manner or appear overly confident or arrogant. Instead, be courteous throughout and remember to smile.
At the end of many interviews, it is likely that you will be asked if you have any questions. Try to think of a selection of relevant and appropriate enquiries in advance to avoid being put on the spot during your appointment.
