Question

hi, dudes,,, i have lot of fear abouts interview and their questions, how to reduce it and wat shoud be our ambition in life.????

Answer 1

Your ambition should reflect your strengths. To get over your interview jitters, just apply at some jobs that you really don't care if you get. Do it for the experience of having someone ask you the questions. Blitz your resume out and if you do or don't get the job isn't the point, heck even get interviewed to be a paperboy. The point is to boost your confidence so when it comes to the job you want you can say to yourself "hey, what am I worried about? I have done this a couple of times already... it's all good now"

Answer 2

The first thing is to be relaxed thus arriving in plenty of time. Have a good night's sleep beforehand and plan to arrive around 30 minutes early. Going according to plan and taking your time, any normal delays should mean that you arrive around 10 to 15 minutes before the interview. Whilst waiting to be interviewed, do not pace the reception area or sit twiddling your thumbs, it does not look good to the prospective employer. You need to sit comfortably and read one of those trashy trade magazines that are only left out to impress visitors. This will help you to keep your mind off the interview and not notice that they are running over 10 minutes late. As soon as you enter the Interview room, shake hands and introduce yourself to everybody present. This is also a good technique as the physical contact will help make you feel at ease. Although many find it difficult, make plenty of eye contact as this will give you more confidence and fell at ease. Avoiding eye contact will only make you restless and tense. As for questions, find out all you can about the company, it's industry and the job that you are applying for, beforehand. You should be prepared to answer all questions, confidently and also demonstrate you knowledge in the company etc. Finally, have two or three of your own questions but make sure they are relevant to your application. One example could be, "I am not too competent with Powerpoint, would there be any training opportunity for me to develop my skills in that area?" Do not ask, "how often do I get a pay rise?" When will I get my holidays?" etc. This shows that you are not interested in the company or the job, you are only interested in the money and any perks you can obtain. Mentioning work hours and holidays also tells the potential employer that you are work shy, a shirker or a skiver. However, questioning your promotional prospects can show that you are interested in long term employment with the company and have long term vision for your development within that company. Good Luck!

Answer 3

the number one thing that separates men and women is Testosterone. This is why men can handle stress better then women. If you really want to handle stress/fear better then increase your testosterone level. There are two things you can do in the short term. 1)Sex decreases your test. level so do not have sex (Or beat the monkey) a couple days before an interview 2) physical exercise can increase your test. level. Go to the gym the day before or the morning of the interview. Try it. You will be surprised.

Answer 4

It's a lack of knowledge that induces fear, have a look at these and I'm sure you will feel more confident.
