The job search process has an interview, that I have seen the most bizarre questions, obviously sitting across from the interviewer but there is a kind of census taker mess into the illusion. Family members, parents' education, job position, family income ...... interviewer is fast to the family tree to "forced" out. It is really puzzling! I'm obviously looking for a job, why is the interviewer "chasing after" my parents?
However, after I worked there later, the interviewer told me this: "We do not ask about the applicant's family background out of a desire to gossip about the applicant's privacy. There is a lot to learn about family status. It is important to look at the soundness and health of the family environment in which a person grows up, because it has a direct bearing on the development of the individual's personality, character, etc., which can be derived from the person's attitude and communication skills."
Now, if you were notified by someone to come to my company for an interview, I think you would have simulated some of the scenarios you had in the interview session many times. However, sometimes often failure is your own inner workings, causing you to mentally slowly fear to the point of interview failure. So what kind of demons are playing havoc with your mind and destroying your interview? Here's a look at it!
1, excessive tension
Can quickly enter the interview state, but also the interviewer on the candidate's examination point, if the position is a sales, customer service category, then the performance at this time will have a greater score. And excessive tension leads to a series of reactions such as blocked speech, behavioral stereotypes, non-answers, so that candidates lose their original self, can not show the best side of the interviewer, into the most affected by the interview process and the quality of the interview killer.
Workplace psychologists said that in the stage of arriving at the enterprise waiting for the interview, nervousness can be adjusted to smile to welcome every enterprise staff, and take the initiative to create a pleasant atmosphere in order to achieve a state of relaxation; it can also be a diversion of attention, by observing the business environment, flipping through the corporate brochures, to enhance the understanding of getting rid of nervousness; it can be more rhythmic deep breathing to adjust the heart rate, and to do success! The psychological implication to enhance self-confidence.
2, arrogance and disdain
Often job seekers take an arrogant, disdainful attitude to deal with the interviewer's questions to show that their own super-confidence, hoping that the psychological superiority of the deterrent companies, get the job. However, the chances of hiring a candidate with such a job-seeking attitude are almost zero, and one can only regret that he or she has used the wrong method, as it will certainly be strongly resented by the enterprise. Career psychology experts say that companies in the recruitment of the most important practical significance of the job capacity, as long as the candidate can be compatible with the job requirements of the skills with the success of the case to prove that it is enough to get the recognition of the enterprise, the other arrogant show can only indicate that the applicant's mind is weak, can not be realistic, face their own attitude is never welcome by the enterprise.
3, false modesty and true inferiority complex
Some job seekers in the interview will be taken to hide the actual ability to humbly express their professional skills are not very skilled tactics, hoping that through the modest attitude to obtain the interviewer's recognition; and fresh graduates due to less social practice, less competitive, often bluntly expressed their own advantages, revealing a lack of self-confidence in the inferiority complex. Whether the job seeker is false modesty or true inferiority complex, all convey the same information to the interviewer, that is, the lack of job competence. Career psychology experts said that HR does not like to beat around the bush, they need to get the most direct, most effective answer, in order to improve the screening efficiency, false modesty in the interview doubly redundant, HR recognized at the same time, the applicant's competitiveness will be seriously reduced; and everyone has its flashpoints, don't easily "I'm not much of an advantage" blurted out, which reflects not only inferiority complexes, and even more poorly thought out, not aggressive The first thing you need to do is to get a good understanding of what you are doing and how you are doing it.
So, it is recommended that job seekers should give the interviewer a positive, positive answer, in the limited time to show the advantages of personal job search comprehensively, to win the interviewer's positive recognition.
4, contempt and antagonism
There is a psychological state of the subtext is "HR does not know my professional field of knowledge, your problem I do not want to explain, I am only willing to communicate with the department manager." This is the contempt and antagonism that experienced job seekers often have. Candidates with this kind of demon often can't wait to meet with the department manager, and will pass by the job of their choice.
Workplace psychologists said, and candidates for professional and technical discussion is not the focus of the work of HR in the preliminary examination, even if it is a tricky question is also HR want to through the pressure of the situation, to test the candidate's resistance to pressure, responsiveness, flexibility and other essential abilities of the position, and, the candidate can not be sure of the true identity of the interviewer, when the candidate to show contempt or antagonism, and other arguments. Situation, interpersonal communication skills, work attitude test will end in failure. Therefore, do not let contempt become a stumbling block on the road to find a job, should hold an equal and tolerant attitude towards the interview of people and things, with positive energy to conquer the enterprise.
In fact, for the interview, we have to meet the interview with a calm mind. However, do not be too afraid to cause nervousness in the interview, so that the interviewer left a bad impression. Here, I would like to remind you not to be too nervous, proud and don't care in the interview, which will lead to the failure of the interview.
