4 Things To Consider Before Interviewing In English

Careers Published on

Congratulations! You have been invited to an interview for the position you have applied for. But no, no! Will the interview be conducted in English?
Interviews can be difficult if you are not confident in speaking English. You may be afraid of making an unwanted mistake during the interview. You may worry that the interviewer won't understand you, or worse, that they won't understand you. But as scary as it may be, it's also a great opportunity to show off your skills and gain confidence in a professional environment. If you're reading this article, it means you're ready to take on this challenge. Here are four things to remember before your big day.

1. You have the right skills for the job. 

You received a phone call and were invited to an interview, right? That is wonderful! In today's world, recruiters and hiring managers are good at sifting through applications and resumes to find the right person for the job. That's their job. So by the time you are invited for an interview, you are already one of the top candidates. After all, often only 2% of applicants have a chance of getting an interview. Always remember that you are a strong and qualified candidate, and your goal is to demonstrate it. sauce

2. Sounding natural is more important than being perfect. 

If you have ever applied for a job that involved an interview in English, you probably already have good English skills and are ready for this challenge. It is a good idea to practice and rehearse what you will say so that you can speak with confidence during the interview. However, remember to speak naturally during the interview. If all your answers sound like you've practiced them, you could be at a disadvantage in the actual interview.

Additionally, it is impossible to prepare for every question you will be asked. At some point, you may be asked a question that you haven't practiced. Don't panic! Remember that you have the knowledge and ability to answer any questions.

So instead of worrying about small grammatical mistakes, focus on clearly communicating your skills and ideas. Practice different topics rather than specific questions. If you do this, you will be able to handle anything. 3. Understand first, then react. 

When you are interviewed in English, the interviewer will ask you questions that you cannot understand. What are you doing? Many people try to answer the question anyway, but it quickly becomes clear that they don't understand. Instead, ask the interviewer to repeat the question. It's much more important to answer a question correctly than to pretend you understand something when you actually don't. Similarly, thinking before speaking is a sign of intelligence. Therefore, it may be helpful to think a little before answering the question. This doesn't mean you have to pause before each answer, but don't be afraid to gather your thoughts before starting your answer if you need to. 4. Some things are out of your control. 

If you practice for weeks before your interview, learn everything about the company, and wear your best suit, you'll have the perfect interview and win the job, right? necessarily. Even if you do everything right, there are always factors beyond your control. Maybe the interviewer is not feeling well and can't concentrate on your answer. Maybe there are other candidates who are a little better suited for the job than you. Or, if the interview is on her Skype, there is a problem with the connection. Even if you are perfect at the interview, you may not get hired. It's unfortunate and difficult, but it will probably happen at least once in your life. The key is not to give up on applying for your next job just because you failed the interview. Treat every interview as a learning experience.
