What you should do before and after an interview
Wear the right outfit and bring copies of your résumé.__9__ One good idea is to check with human resource before the interview to get a feel of what you should wear.Although you're sure the company has your résumé,it never fails to bring copies of yours just in case your interviewer needs to look at it and doesn't have it in front of her.
__10__ Be aware of how you're carrying yourself during an interview,because your posture,eye contact,and relaxed position can impress your interviewer.Remember to sit still and straight and don't fidget(坐立不安).
Be on time or slightly early.__11__ Showing up too early can make things awkward,and showing up too late is a red flag.But just because you only have to get there shortly before the interview starts it doesn't mean that you can leave your house later.Plan to be near the interview spot a lot earlier than when it starts to account for unexpected delays like traffic,and hang around in a nearby coffee shop until it's close to the interview time.
__12__ Make sure you've prepared a list of good questions to ask your interviewer at the end.Pay attention throughout the interview,so you'll have questions related to what the hiring manager talked about.This shows that you're actively listening.
Send a thank-you note.__13__ This is something that's appreciated by a lot of recruiters(招聘人员).It's also your chance to make a final impression or clarify anything you didn't get around to in your interview.
A.Give the right answer to the question.
B.Have the appropriate body language.
C.Prepare the right questions for the interviewer.
D.Always send a thank-you note after the interview.
E.Try to take part in as many interviews as possible.
F.Make sure you know what the dress code is for the office.
G.Turning up five to 10 minutes early is the sweet spot for interviews.
