Interview aka Land of Doom

Interviews. Some people dread going for interviews because of the fear of not getting the results wanted. Scratch that, MOST people cringe from the idea if going for an interview,  whether for a job application or to get into a society. However, there is actually no need to shrink away from interviews or be nervous about it because there are countless of ways that can be used to overcome this fear.

Firstly, try making a good impression on the interviewers by dressing appropriately. There are different outfits for different situations, so DO think twice before just grabbing any outfit from your wardrobe. 

More often than not, people are usually afraid of interviews because they are worried that they would not be able to think or respond fast nor the way that the interviewers would want. This is where Google comes in, where you are supposed to research, do some homework about this company you want to join. Knowing just a little information goes a long way, because it just might be your ticket in to the company. Speaking eloquently would help in gaining brownie points with the interviewer, but if you're nervous, it would definitely show in your face. So keep calm and steady, answer the questions thrown at you with ease and ask them questions as well to get more information. Even if you failed an interview, you would still have gained experience out of it. Think positively and look at it with a positive mindset. As the saying goes, see the glass half full, and not half empty.
