Interview Session in Progress

When you receives a letter of interview , you get nervous that how you will face interview. Keep in mind that this is a great opportunity and you are not going to miss it. Now I am going to mention below the  tips :

1. Check the Website : You have to check the website of the company or organisation. Look about the details how its function. Who are associated with that  company. Lots of fake companies are putting advertisements. Now check what services do it provides to their clients. Which companies are their clients ? If you got a letter for the post of Librarian? Check which library software they are using ? Which software for institutional repository they are using ? You will get idea about the library and its services. You will now train yourself for that interview. Get information about that software.How it works ? So learn better about those things which you think valuable for that interview. 
2. Prepare your Dress for interview : Make ready a pair of dress for your interview. You should look like a professional. You can't go in a jeans or party shirt. That will make a negative impression because of your dress. Dress makes or breaks  impression. It will give a message of non seriousness attitude to the hiring manager. It should have a formal uniform. Wear a simple dress like a plain white or light blue shirt with dark blue or black trousers. Wear a tie that will look like a professional. Wear a black belt and black leather well polished shoes. The girls should also wear white shirt and dark skirt for western outfit. In Indian scenario you wear simple salwar kameez or sari. Simple dress is more dressed in corporate and service sector.So it is necessary that you take proper care of your dress.
3.  Photocopy all your Certificates - Sometimes it is walk in interview and so you have not sent any documents before. You photocopy all documents and then keep in a file. The sequence should be like the qualifying documents should be on top. If you are not keeping it in order than you are going to face trouble of searching. At times if you are in hurry you don't find right document at right time. Resume copy is very necessary .Make a habit of taking two copies of each document. Keep in file Original as well as photocopies separately. Keep a set of two or three passport size photos. You should carry stapler along with its pin and fevicol for pasting photograph. You will  be provided a form at the place of interview to fill your details and staple your documents. Photo have to be pasted there.
4. Visit the Venue one day before- If you are outsider, I mean from other city, then visit the interview venue one day before. From this you will get idea , about how much time it will take to reach that place. Which will be good for you , a car or bus to reach that place. You will the prepare yourself by calculating that time. You will not be late in reaching that place. Even you can miss interview for coming late.
5. Inform at the Reception Desk about your visit - Whenever you reach the interview spot , you inform at the reception that you have come for interview. They will give you form or inform the hiring manager. Sometimes people go and sit there without informing. Sometimes happen that you have not put your details at the venue's register. The formalities have to be done.
6. Body Language - Your body language is an important factor in deciding that you are fit for that job. If you are nervous , then whole preparation goes in vain. you have sweat on your forehead and palms. The hiring manager are experienced , they notice how you enters into the room. Your gesture are enough to tell you are confident or nervous. How you wish them ? How you sit at the chair? Do you took permission to sit on the chair ? Eye Contact is important factor. If one experts ask some question , you have to answer seeing all the experts. Don't neglect other experts of the panellist. If you are having eye contact with each and every experts this will have positive affects. It shows you are confident and well mannered.You can handle stressful moments at the work place. 
7. How Questions are to  be  Answered- When questions are put, give relevant answers. Don't make story. The experts know who are making stories. What ever you have mentioned in Resume, you should know it. On trick you can do is that when you are explaining any topic like how library software works in libraries, at that you can name a company that handles these works and stop it. Then the expert will ask about that company and which software you were talking. what are the features and cost. In which way it is going to help in proving library services ? So you can turn your interview in your court. You should know the latest trends of that field. If you don't know any question just ask them excuse for that move on. Don't give wrong answer and try to convince experts. Brush your basic concepts and that will give good results. Be polite with the panellist. Have a smile on your face while answering questions.
8. Never talk about previous company's conflict - You don't talk about the misadventures of your previous employer. This will give bad impression about you. They will think you are the person who creates conflict. So don't talk about any negative issues. Give some good reasons why you are leaving that company and intend to join this company.
