Pro-Tips For Your First Time Interview – Make sure you crack it!

Waiting the lobby for your name to be called while wondering what will be asked and how would you fare while biting nails – Does this scene sound familiar?



Considering all the experience you have had thus far is of a few internships, you are new in the Industry with no major experience to quote, facing your first interview can be quite nervous. The flip side is actual face-to-face interaction with the potential employer is a fab chance to make the best first impression and get hired! Let’s see how you can use it:

1. Know the Company, like really!

The least the potential employer will expect from the candidate is that they do their home work and research about the company. It basically conveys that you are genuinely interested and serious about the role. It is absolutely essential to research well about the company you are applying and really understand their product/service, mission, vision and functions. This information could come handy when you answer a few questions.
This will guarantee a great first impression!

2. The Introduction

‘Tell me about yourself’ is one of the very first and the most predictable question. Not being pepared for this with a kickass answer plain is lame!
Consider this question is an opportunity for you to set the tone of the interview and to help him see the aspects that’s you’d want him to see. Do not waste this opportunity by reciting your resume. Instead prepare before for a short and enthusiastic response that outlines why you are the best fit for the job!

3. What Can You Offer?

Clearly understand the detailed profile and description of the job you are applying for. You answer to this question should clearly justify why you can shine here, each point you make must be supported by an instance where you used the particular ability before.

4. Act Confident

Confidence is the key for all successful endeavors and same applies to interviews as well. Make sure carry yourself in a way that makes you come across as confident (not too smart, mind you). And really be confident, at the moment, whatever you are, you are. Remember faking is no good and will stand right out! So, Acting is a no-no!

5. Never Lie In Your Resume

Never, Never and Never fake anything in your resume – This is the thumb rule! It can backfire and backfire so badly that it may sometimes be difficult to save your face! Remember that the interviewer is fairly experienced and can easily spot the fake bits very very easily. Never write anything in your resume that’s not true!

6. Dress Well

This is one thing that’s often neglected. It’s important to dress in a presentable way (Formal). No loud dressing or glittery jazz. Wear simple, light colors, Freshly washed and Ironed clothes! Look good and smell great – It shows the vibes of confidence!

7. Have Your Questions too

Interviews are not one-sided conversations anymore. Once the interviewer finished his turn to ask questions, take your turn. Ask any questions related to the company or the job you are applying for.. Just ensure they don’t sound arrogant or like a stubborn head.

8. Be Honest 

It’s perfectly ok to not know an answer and say it… Faking and stammering is not! If you don’t know the answer for something, simply say so…but do make sure to ask what the answer of that question once the interview is done. This actually talks about your eagerness to learn new things, which is in reality the most admired quality in a potential employee. You’ll bowl them over.

9. Breathe Easy 

Anxiety is the most unnecessary emotion that ruins your performance in most interviews. Just take it easy before walking in to the interview room… You have prepared enough, haven’t you? Breath easy – It surely helps.

10. Thank You Mail

Sending a Thank you mail to the employer irrespective of your selection goes a long way in talking of your attitude of gratitude and politeness. Tell them how thankful you are for the opportunity to interact and to learn.


So, do we see a confident you?  All the best!
