Job Interviews: Giving Yourself the Best Chance

Applying for jobs can be quite challenging, especially if you are shortlisted and you know you will now have to impress an interview panel and convince them that you are the best person for the job. But what’s the best way to do that? What do interview panels look for in deciding who to appoint?

These are some of the important questions we may ask ourselves in trying to decide how to present ourselves in the best light. One of the dangers is that we can let our nerves get the better of us and then come across as much less competent than we really are. So, it is important that we are as well prepared as we can be, with a good understanding of what job interviews are all about. And that is where this guide comes in. It has been developed to provide an overview of key issues to consider before the interview, during it and thereafter.

Understandably most people will find job interviews challenging and even disconcerting, but the better prepared you are, the greater your chance of rising to that challenge and showing the panel just how good you are and how unwise they would be not to appoint you. This e-book is therefore an important resource for anyone facing the demands of a job interview.
