Job Interview Etiquette - I
Dress appropriately for the position. This may take some research. Find out the acceptable dress code for your potential job; is it traditional office wear, office causal, or simply causal? The traditional power colors black, blue, grey, and brown are still acceptable and highly recommended. Avoid wearing jeans. Even if the job is one where you normally would wear jeans, opt for a pair of tan khakis and a nice polo type shirt instead. Make sure your shoes are neat and clean.
Choose a trim resume holder along with a pen and pad of paper. Don’t load yourself down with a bunch of stuff. Know in advance if you need to bring samples of your work or additional materials. If so then pack light and simple. Choose something in black, brown or burgundy that is easy to reach into without causing a fuss during the interview. Be sure you bring a pen and paper along to take notes.
Get directions. Make sure you have the correct directions. Use map to get correct driving directions. Call in advance and double check with the receptionist if necessary. Leave your house in enough time to allow for unexpected delays.
Arrive on time. On time means 15 minutes early, it’s better for you to wait than to be waited on. Once you arrive, give yourself a “once-over”. Check yourself one last time for any imperfections, leave your cell phone in the car, pop a mint in your mouth, and head on in.
Be polite to everyone. Greet the receptionist with a pleasant “Good Morning” or “Good Afternoon”, then say “My name is ________ (first and last name) and I have a ________ o‘clock appointment with Mr./Ms._________. If the receptionist is on the telephone, don’t interrupt. Wait patiently until she’s finished the call. Remember, you‘re there early so you can wait.
Greet with a firm hand shake and maintain good eye contact during the interview. Once you are called in for the interview, greet your interviewer by keeping it simple. Just stand up straight, smile, their name and give them a firm handshake. It’s a good idea to practice shaking hands at home. Avoid handshakes that are too limp or overpowering.
