Look Good, Feel Better

Rightly or wrongly, looks often make a difference, be smart and look professional. Bear in mind the company you are applying to - how do your potential future co-workers dress for work? If you already look the part then you're on the way to fitting in at your desired new job!

Be on time!

Always keep in mind that you never get a second chance to make a excellent first impression, so make sure you're prepared. Aim to arrive 20-25 minutes before your interview time, that way if your bus is late or you get stuck in traffic you'll still arrive on time. If you arrive early, you could wait nearby at a cafe or have a quick stroll around the locality thinking about what you plan to say in your interview. Aim to arrive at reception exactly 10 minutes before your scheduled interview time.

Hold your head up high and smile

Eye contact is one of the most important aspects while on your interview and can make a important difference in how you come accross. If you constantly look away when speaking to someone, you may well be seen as lacking confidence or not interested or worse still being dishonest. So always answer their questions with eye contact, but don't stare so hard it looks odd!.

Be enthusiastic and positive

During your job interview always be positive. Do not be negative or mention any bad points about previous employers. Focus on positive achievements and optimistic views, remember to smile and be attentive.

Finally, don't give up your job hunt!

Alas no matter how prepared you are the reality is that you are unlikely to be offered every job that you'd like to get, however ideal you think you may be for it.



If you do not get the job after an interview it is no bad thing to go back through the interview with someone and try to have them to discuss any areas where you could have done better. There will be other interviews in the weeks to come and any less that perfect interviews should be looked upon as part of a learning process.



Don't forget that performing well at an interview is a skill and it can be learnt and improved with help and practice. There are plenty jobs in and around Worthing - the main thing is to find the right one for you!
