1. We REALLY know you.

Well, hiring managers dig your background really hard. They keep their eyes on your social media profiles and ears on the comments you have passed regarding the previous employers. So make sure that you have kept your profiles ready for the interview.

Pro Tip:-

Check your virtual identities through the eyes of the interviewer and delete all the post which may become hurdles in your way.

2. I want an Employee, not Family man.

While hiring the employees, the hiring managers take the family facts quite seriously. If you are fresher with the wedding ring, it can lessen the chances of getting the job. Further, few companies employ the people who don’t have responsibilities of kids, so that they can give extra hours to the company without any excuses.

Pro Tip:-

Leave your ring in the bag and remember that you are not bothered to reveal your relationship status!

3. Your LOOKS will say a lot about you.

The first impression is the last impression. Well, you know this quote, but forget to apply. Get ready to be the potential employee; don’t walk in like a college boy. How you are representing yourself is showing your seriousness towards the job.

Pro Tip:-

Do research about the company’s culture and dressing antiquates, get ready accordingly!

 

4. We tired of hearing memorized answers.

Well, you are not the only one to whom the hiring manager is interviewing and he must be tired of hearing the memorized answers such as I am the perfectionist or Team player. Rather than repeating the answers they already know, answer distinctively.
