Common Errors
Job interviews can be stressful, especially if youre nervous about making mistakes that could sabotage your chance of getting the job. Fortunately, many errors are easy to avoid with a little preparation. Here are four of the most common ones and some tips for steering clear of them.

1. Getting Too Personal

One common error is revealing too much personal information during the interview. When answering interview questions, its best to stick to work-related answers.

2.

Not Picking Up on Cues

Another common mistake is not following the interviewers lead in the conversation. When the interviewer gives you an opportunity to course-correct, take it.

3.

Not Doing Your Homework

Many candidates continue to make the mistake of not researching the company before the interview. Candidates who can speak knowledgeably about the company and how they can contribute to the organizations success show that theyve done their homework and have a high interest in the business.

4. Not Taking Initiative

Another common mistake is taking too passive of a role. Come with your own list of questions about the companys strategy and culture.

What to say
Interviewing for a new job can be incredibly nerve wracking and its natural to feel nervous about it. But if you take a deep breath and focus on preparing to say the things recruiters want to hear, youll be fine.

1. Let me tell you about a time that I solved that problem.

Even if an interview question could be answered with a simple yes or no, you want to be sure to say more so you highlight the value youd bring to the organization if youre hired for the position.

2. Can you clarify?

Asking follow-up questions such as does that make sense, demonstrates to an interviewer youre intent on communicating thoroughly and accurately, a skill most employers appreciate.

3. I know about the project

When two people meet for the first time, its polite to ask questions and express an interest in each other. In a job interview, though, you demonstrate your interest in the company by doing research before you show up, so dont have to ask basic questions and can move on to having an intelligent conversation about it.

4.Id love the chance to join this team!
Theres a huge difference between begging for a job and expressing a genuine desire to work for a company and fill the role youre interviewing for. Recruiters are looking for people who are excited about the company and have a real interest in their prospective role.
