Q 5. You are going to face a job interview for the post of Manageroperations. Which
aspects you will keep in mind while facing the interview?
A 5. Interviewees perspective before the job interview
As a job applicant, you will have to do some groundwork before the
interview, prepare to do well during the interview, assess your performance
and do some follow up after the interview. Pre-interview planning is similar to
preparing for a sales presentation. You will have to sell yourself to the
prospective employer, by highlighting your unique strengths and by
convincing the employer that you are the right person for the job. It also
involves doing a thorough study of the organisation for which you are
attending the interview. Employers expect applicants to gather information
about the organisation in advance and do not want to waste precious
interview time providing such information. Preparation before the interview
also involves doing a self-analysis, to assess your own abilities, strengths,
weaknesses, interests and preferences. For example, are you a team player,
or do you work better alone? Would you prefer a travelling job or a desk job?
Do you enjoy interacting with people?
During the job interview
Opening formalities Since it is important to create a good first
impression, the way you greet and introduce yourself is important.
Non-verbal communication It was emphasised that in face-to-face
communication, non-verbal cues can enhance communication and
convey a positive message.
Group interviews A group interview is one where a panel of
interviewers interview a single applicant.
Two-way interview Although the applicants task is primarily to
listen and the interviewers job is primarily to ask questions, it is in the
hands of the applicant to make the communication a two-way process.
Honesty and humility It is important to be honest and to avoid
giving vague answers or beating around the bush, if you do not know
the answer to a particular question.
Positive answers Do not speak ill of your previous employers. If
asked about your previous experiences, you may give honest
feedback, but you should do so tactfully.
Salary discussion Any discussion on salary should be initiated by
the interviewer and not by the interviewee, especially during the initial
interview.
Closing the interview How you close the interview is as important
as how you open it. Normally, the interviewer gives a signal when the
interview is over, either through body language, or by making a
comment on the next step for action.
After the job interview
This stage involves the third and fourth steps in the interviewing process
evaluating the interview and taking appropriate action. From the applicants
point of view, it is important to do a self-assessment of performance during
the interview. Even if the applicant is not expecting a favourable outcome, it
is important to send a thank-you letter to the interviewer immediately,
