  1. Six Tips to Ace the Job Interview Omdayal Group of Institutions helps connect its students to jobs. Aside from the job fairs and networking opportunities present, we'll also be helping students learn essential skills during a series of workshops. Here's a few tips about interview preparation 1) Do the research A common mistake interviewees make is not knowing enough about the organization you're interviewing at. Before even writing an application to a company, be sure to visit their web site, and search for any news or press regarding their latest development. If you can bring up what you've learned during an interview and relate it back to yourself, you'll look prepared and thoughtful. 2) Focus on achievements, not duties This is a tricky one. When discussing previous jobs, don't simply talk about what you had to do there. For example, if you're an advertising writer, don't simply say that you were asked to write ads. Instead, focus on your successes, and what you achieved through your tasks. Did you increase the exposure of the business? Were they effective? That's what you discuss. 3) Think about a genuine weakness you possess "What is your greatest weakness?" is a question every interviewee dreads. The worst thing you can do is give a non-serious response, like, "I work too hard." At the same time, don't go into a rant about your worst qualities.

  2. Instead, come up with one legitimate weakness you have, and then follow it up with the steps you've taken to overcome it. 4) Always dress for the part Like it or not, during an interview you will be judged on your appearance, so you need to make sure you're well-dressed and groomed, and match the environment of the company. If you're not sure what that environment is, dress formally, as it's better to show up overdressed. Corporate jobs call for a full suit, while more casual roles call for a simple dress pants and shirt combination. 5) How you answer is as important as what you say Just as your appearance is important, so is how you answer your questions, as it shows how you act under pressure. Calmness, confidence and eye contact are three very important factors. If you're caught off-guard, take some time to think, or ask for clarification, rather than barreling into an answer unprepared. 6) Always follow up Even if an interview goes perfectly, you can still make a huge mistake when it's over by not following up. While thank-you notes by mail is old fashioned, hiring managers like himself still like to receive them, and will set you apart from the masses. It's a little thing, but it can make a difference, and shows you're really interested in the position. To groom yourself more on all these, don’t think twice to get admissions at OmDayal Group of Institutions.
