1. Update your CV
Keep your resume updated as and when you do new things in your career, whether it is a work experience or any skill you have learned. This will help you to respond quickly to unexpected job opportunities.
Also, mention things in your resume that are correct. You should be able to justify what you have written in your resume.
2. Update your social sites
Do you know that many people get jobs/internships through social media? With an era post-COVID-19, the world is becoming highly digital. Recruiters go through people's social media (For example, Linkedin) and hire the best talent.
Social media can also be used to learn more about companies and find relevant jobs.
3. Cold calling
Do you wish to work at your dream job? Then do not underestimate the power of cold calling. Start reaching out to the people whom you want to work with over email. This looks professional, and if they genuinely see you as a suitable candidate, they do revert.
4. Dress Well
Before going for a job interview, make sure you dress professionally and appropriately. No casuals should be worn. This shows that you genuinely care about the company and you are serious enough about the role.
Wear dresses in pastel colors instead of shiny apparel. Make sure the clothes are well ironed and clean.
Remember! Recruiters will form the first impression of you by the way you dress.
5. Take the lead
Most recruiters will ask you to tell them something about yourself. This is your chance to turn the interview in your favor. Prepare a one-minute speech that should include your name, prior work experience, strengths, and hobbies. You may mold this answer according to your interests.
The things you talk about in this answer will be discussed the most in the interview. So make sure to talk about those things you have genuinely done, and you are comfortable discussing them.
6. Mention hobbies with learning
Most people think that mentioning hobbies in a resume does not hold any relevance. Well, it does!
Make sure to write about how that hobby helped you with some learning. For example, you may write that you were a part of your school's dance committee, which helped you adjust to the team and made you a team player.
7. Ask questions
The interviewer will ask you at the end if you have any questions, and saying yes shows that you are really interested in the company and the profile. Ask questions relevant to your role.
8. Smile
Have you ever seen people who enter a room and light it up? They have such charisma. You need to showcase such things in your interview as well. Keep a warm smile on your face, but do not smile too much.
9. Do background research on the company.
It would help if you understood the company-what they do, what their vision is, etc. Research the company as much as you can since they can ask you why you want to be a part of their firm. You have to show how their company is the top choice you have.
10. Be confident
Being confident goes a long way! Even if you do not answer the question being asked, be honest and say that you do not know. They are just checking if you can handle pressure or not. Answer all questions confidently, and you are good to go.
All the best!
