Big job interview tomorrow! I haven't been this nervous since I got married! Any last words of advice?

Remember that your potential employer wants to find a good person just like you want to find a good job. So they really want you to succeed in the interview!





Go in with confidence and a big smile!





Good luck!Big job interview tomorrow! I haven't been this nervous since I got married! Any last words of advice?
I know job hunting can be very nerve racking but you have to stay calm here are some guide lines:





Learn all you can about the company or organization, prepare papers, including extra copies of your resume, job reference lists, reference letters, pad for taking notes, and any other information that you may wish to have with you.


Arrive 10 to 15 minutes early


Treat everyone you encounter with professionalism and kindness. Anyone may offer his or her opinion of you to the boss. It will count


Don't be shy; be enthusiastic, confident and energetic, but not aggressive, pushy or egotistic.


Don't make negative comments about previous employers or professors (or others).


Listen very carefully to each question you are asked and give thoughtful, to-the-point and honest answers.


Remember that an interview is a two-way conversation


By asking informed questions, such as the following, you not only gain knowledge about the potential employer, but you also make a good impression:


Would there be opportunities for advancement, and, how long before I might be considered for one?


What have been its goals in the last year, and, did it meet them?


What will be the greatest challenge in the job?


What responsibilities have the highest priority?


Can you describe a typical day for someone in this position?


How many people have held this job in the last five years?


Make sure you understand the employer's next step. Know what action you are expected to take next, if any.


Always thank the interviewer for his or her time at the close of the interview and offer a firm handshake and make eye contact.


Always send a thank you letter to the interviewer immediately. If there were several people that interviewed you, send them each a thank you note. It is good to keep the letter short but to also reiterate your interest in the position and your confidence in your qualifications


I wish you all the best!!

Look professional. Get some sleep. Work out in the morning to relief stress. Get a massage before the big event it will give you a calm demeanor which translates into confidence. Head up. Breathe deeply in through you nose out through your mouth slowly. don't forget to breathe. Give yourself plenty of time. do not be late!!! Project a happy confident personality.
good luck and just go in there and blow them away.





and remember, even if you don't get the job, there will always be another job out there for you! :D
prepare some questions to ask the employer. if you seem interested in the position it shows your confidence! Good Luck
Get there on time
