What to do when only 15 minutes are left for the job interview?
Being nervous is so natural when your interview is scheduled and hardly a couple of minutes are left. So, it’s better to be calm and take deep breaths instead a feeling stress. It is recommended to take the training from the recruitment agency on how to create a positive impact on your recruiter. I am also going to give some tips on how to tackle the situation and make your interview successful:
1. Be calm- According to the David Parnell, author, and communication coach, in the state of stress, our body releases hormones such as Cortisol and Epinephrine. These hormones discourage your clear thinking ability and you may not be able to focus on your interview. If you stay calm before and during the interview, you can greatly respond to the interviewer.
2. Try to reach early but wait outside- It is recommended that do not go inside until 10 minutes are left. It’s better to wait outside in the café or in your car.
3. Focus on your sitting posture- Try to sit in a power pose that will make you feel more comfortable and confident.
4. Avoid checking social media accounts or email –Checking your social media accounts and emails may break your focus from the interview.
5. Review your notes once and do not try to research anymore- By this time you must be done by researching or making notes. And this is the time to look over it rather than extending your research.
6. Think about the happy moments- You can have a look back into your feel-good memories which will bring a smile on your face and you will feel relaxed.
