you more confident.

15 minutes in advance so that you can relax and get yourself ready to
face the interview. Make sure you know exactly where you're going and
always be on time. It will also depict your punctuality.

6. Improve your communication skill:Your
communication skills play a significant role while you are interviewed
for a job post. Improve your communication skill. If you are good at
communication, half of your job is done. Back up your good communication
skills with impressive ideas especially when asked about your career
goals. Boost your communication skills with a suitable body language.
The way you smile, talk, argue and put forward your views are integral
to your communication skills.
7. Dress Neatly and Professionally: Your dressing
sense is the mirror of your personality. It defines the society you
belong to. Dress like you are a part of them. Always wear a formal suit.
Black trousers and a white shirt would be the best combination. Avoid
wearing colorful shirts and trousers. Look like a professional.
8. Switch off your phone: Your interview is about
you and the job, not about who is texting you. Most people turn their
cell phones on vibrate to avoid appearing unprofessional. Vibrate,
however, is also bad. It may come as a surprise, but interviewers are
not actually hard of hearing. They can hear the buzz, buzz, buzz sound
coming from your pocket every time you get a phone call or text message.
Your phone needs to be off completely. The disturbance is not
acceptable in any form and the job is more important than your one call
or a message, so turn off your phone before entering.
10. Be loud enough and clear: Make sure that the interviewer can hear you clearly. Avoid talking too loudly or in a very low volume. Murmuring under your breath is often frustrating for the interviewer.
11. Say “I don’t know” : While you must make intelligent guesses, don’t fake around by trying to offer wrong answers to the questions you don’t know at all. It is absolutely OK if you don’t know certain things.
