A successful interview is the key to getting the right job. Before going to attend an interview, be aware of the top 10 mistakes that you should absolutely not do.

Metairie, Lo (prHWY.com) September 2, 2012 - You don’t want to show up to the interview in a casual dress code. In order to build a good impression on your interviewers and leave a lasting impression on them, its better that you should follow these guidelines:

Arriving with good hygiene.

-Conventional and neat dress code.
- No visible tattoos.
- Appropriate amount of cologne or perfume.
- No inappropriate body piercings other than single ear piercings for women.
- No outrageous makeup

2. Unprepared answers

Before attending an interview, it’s highly recommended to search the most common interview questions in the internet and make sure you are well prepared. An unprepared answer can pull your impression off from the recruiters. Here is an example of how to be prepared with an impressive answer: If the recruiter asks you “What all things you can achieve within 5 years? What are your goals?” answer this question by making sure that you never imply ending your employment with the company you are interviewing with. It’s better to answer that, you have a long-term commitment to the job which you are applying and you will stick along with them to achieve their goals along with improving your inter-personal skills.


3. Forgetting to do your research

It’s not recommended to attend an interview without knowing anything about the company you are applying with. Make sure that you learn as much you can about the company. Or else do a simple research including, preliminary company information, find whether the company you are applying with has a parent corporation or an external funding, get the information about the post you are applying for.

4.Ringing of Mobile Phones

It’s better to turn off your cell phone or put your phone in the silent mode while attending an interview. Or else set a reminder alarm on that very special day when you are going for an interview, so that you’ll remember to switch off the phone before attending the interview.

5.Asking about salary package too early

It’s true that money is very important to keep our lives going, but one bad thing that you can do in an interview is asking about the salary package you will be earning. It shows that you only care about the money and not about the job position or company.
