Passage One

Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.

At the Interview

In the interview to find jobs, you need to do the following things.

1. The first two or three minutes are important in establishing rapport. Try to develop a friendly approach, smile, relax, shake hands, address the person by name. Look at the interviewer and show interest in what is being said.

2. Take a moment to think about the answers to the questions. Listen carefully; speak clearly and do not rush.

3. Be natural and honest. Be positive and concentrate on achievements and experience. Do not make false claims.

4. Do not answer just “yes” or “no”; support your answers with examples and give reasons for your opinions. At the same time, stick to the point and remember that the interviewer’s time is limited.

5. The status of the person interviewing you may have a bearing on the way you approach your meeting. A personnel office assessing, candidates for a short list will usually not be in a position to discuss technicalities, any more than the sales manager can give you the details of the company pension scheme. However, occasionally personnel staff are equipped with lists of highly technical questions and trained to assess your response even though they are not experts themselves.

6. Use the interview to find out what you want to know about the job and the organization. Have a list of questions ready to cover any topics not dealt with by the interviewer. Make sure you have all the information you need, not only about the actual post, but about the organization itself, including such aspects as career prospects, pension scheme, and fringe benefits.

7. Use every opportunity to stress that you are not just after any old job but that you are really keen to work for the company which is interviewing you.

About all, try not to treat the interview as an examination in which you are always on the receiving end. Use it instead as an opportunity for a full and frank exchange of information. Don’t be afraid to ask for more information or to put your own questions.
