So how do you stand out and make the job interviewer fall in love with you, no not like that, we mean impressed by you? Check out our top five tips on how to connect and impress your interviewer.
1. Engage
You don’t want to be a yes yes job seeker, it will come across as desperate. You want a back and forth in which you ask questions as they come to you. Don’t interrupt but do ask questions when the interviewer is done but only when it comes naturally because they’ll quickly see if you’re trying too hard.
2. Create a conversation
Make your interview a conversation. They might be the ones who decide if you get the job or not but they are human beings first. Show interests in them by asking them personal questions relating to the job and company. Ask them how long have they worked for this company and make sure you tell her how it’s a pleasure to meet and that you’re excited about the job opportunity.
3. Level their energy
After a few minutes, you should be able to get a good read of your interviewer’s energy. You can notice the speed at which they talk. Take note if they have a slow and pensive tempo in their speech, or a much faster and energetic patter. Match them as best you can, this brings resonance between people they will feel more in alignment.
