In this case, the first thing you should do is to let go of your guilt or bitterness, knowing that you have not wasted your time. You have definitely learned something from your previous experience, and you are more experienced now than when you got your last job.

Try to use your energy through searching and applying for as many jobs as you can, that look appropriate to you. Don’t just sit back after one interview or opportunity, keep on searching until you sign that contract. This will also help to keep you from thinking about the last interview you had and driving yourself crazy from wondering whether or not you got the job.

10 Ways To Be Liked In Your Job Interview

Posted by Noor 3 October, 2009 (0) Comment

1. Don’t Be a Smiley Face.

Interviewers perceive excessive smiling as a cover for nervousness and a lack of confidence. Thus it is better to give a thoughtful and pleasant expression. Smile only when there’s something to smile about. You can practice in front of a mirror or a friend to see which expression suits you best.

2. Don’t Be a Know-It-None

Be prepared when you go for an interview. You should do some homework and gather some information about the company for which you’re going for an interview. Instead of doing small talks, find ways to talk about serious subjects related to the industry or company.

3. Don’t Sweat

Dress carefully when going for an interview. It is easy to lose a job by wearing an undershirt or simply a little too much clothing. If you sweat, it will be seen as a sign of weakness and nervousness.
