A review of interview appearance and tips

• Hand should be well manicured. Ladies choose subtle low-key colour over bright fashion colour for nail polish.
• Clean hair with a recent cut and styling.
• Blue, grey or black suits are always in style.
• A quiet tie with a subtle design and a hint of red is suitable for a first interview. Avoid loud colours and busy designs.
• Jewelry should be kept minimal. A watch or wedding or class ring are acceptable. Don't wear a ring or tag that indicate membership in a religious or service organizations. Use deodorant and avoid colognes or fragrances completely.
• Shoes that are black and freshly polished (including the heel) are a safe choice for an interview. Sucks should be blue or black and worn over the calf.
• Practice good posture and be aware of non verbal communication.
• Maintain good eye contact. But don't stare!
• Turn off your cells phones.
• Ladies should Avoid wearing clothes that could distract your interviewers from your talents.
• Avoid exotic hairstyles and excessive makeup.  Hair should be clean, neat and brushed with your jacket off. Makeup should be light and natural looking.
• A closed toe pump that is colour coordinated with your outfit is appropriate for an interview.

Just a reminder

• Leave early for the interview.
• Wear conservative business attire.
• Don't look at your watch.
• No sun-glasses.
• Listen intently, so that you don't have to keep  repeating " I am sorry...
• Don't ask about money yet.
• Don't talk about personal problems.
• Keep your eyes off the interviewer's deck.
• Don't handle anything.
• Never criticize anyone, especially an Employer.
• If asked to complete a form, fill every space.
• Be descriptive. Don’t just answer “yes” or “no” to questions. But also avoid “overanswering.” Make your answers colourful but not lengthy.
• Sell yourself to the interviewer, but without exaggeration or telling lies. You are there to market yourself, “blow your own trumpet” and explain why you’d be right for the role. But don’t come across as arrogant.
• Avoid making negative remarks about your current employer, or past employers or colleagues.
• Be determined. Make it clear that you want to get the job, even if you are given information in the interview that sheds a new light on the role. Be positive, and then evaluate the opportunity again when you are away from the interview. Don’t burn your bridges. 
• Have positive body language, and maintain a good posture. 

If you are given an opportunity to ask any question, do not be in a hurry to go, always ask a couple of questions before you leave. Don't worry, here are some of the questions you may ask.
