Interview Nervous?

Question

I have a very important job interview today and I am really nervous. I am being interviewed by 5 people! Anyone have any techniques to reduce my nervousness? I know the material, I am just very nervous!!

Answer 1

Congratulations!

Just remember that while they're interviewing you, you should also be interviewing them. Go in with confidence and don't be desperate to get the job. If it's meant to be, you'll get it. If not, then you're meant to be somewhere else. If you believe that, then you won't be so nervous.

Review the material in the morning before the interview so it is very fresh in your mind, and get a good night's sleep.

Good luck!

Answer 2

For interviews, you will always have some nervousness. I think the key is to be prepared for it. Preparation builds confidence and that reduces the nervousness.

Well, I wouldn't recommend the undearwear visual......you don't want to end up laughing at them hehe. You may be secretly shaking in your boots and have the ability to crap through a texas pete bottle but you've got to at least look confident when you go in. Try pretending like you already work there. Try making it feel comfortable to you as if you'd been there every day for many years. Be honest and friendly and professional. Walk upright, shake with a firm grip, (not a death grip) and sit up straight. Ma'ams and sir's, pleases and thank you's. Thank them for giving you the opportunity to interview when you walk in. Make them believe that you want to work for this company. Just a heads up, they will probably ask you why you want to work for them. Don't forget to wear appropriate clothing. I pray that you get this job. :) God bless!!!!!

Take a deep breath. Keep your breathing deep and easy. Focus only on the person talking to you, and focus only on the question. In other words, break the interview down into bits. I trust you will have one person asking you a question at a time, so you will get questions and feedback in managable chunks.
