In an interview, your main goal is to persuade the hiring manager that you are the best candidate for the position out of all the others. That you have the necessary talents, a positive personality, and the motivation to succeed in your new position.

However, it's equally crucial to know what the hiring manager will consider a red signal as you prepare responses to interview questions that will allow you to do all of those things.

After all, if you make one or two bad decisions, it won't matter how good your sales figures were at your previous position.

To assist you, stay away from the following 30 messages. You'll make certain that your incredible qualities and accomplishments are recognized.—not a totally avoidable faux pas—will be what your interviewer remembers.

The first rule of interviewing is this: Do your homework. You never want to go into an interview knowing nothing about the position or company; you want to show that you're interested enough to do some research and consider how you'd fit in. To begin, conduct some online research (here's your game plan) and locate a current or former employee with whom you may speak before the big day.


My Previous Company...”
No matter how horrible a job was, you should never, try to blackmail your former employer in an interview. Maintain a neutral to positive tone, concentrating on what you've learned from each experience and what you hope to accomplish in the future. This is especially true when discussing your reasons for leaving—here are some pointers on how to do it properly.
My Boss and I Didn't Get Along”
Similarly, you don't want to say anything unpleasant about somebody you've previously worked with. Even if a past boss could put the characters in Horrible Bosses to shame, your interviewer isn't aware of this—and may wonder whether you're the one who's difficult to deal with.

“I'm a little jittery”
No firm wants to hire someone who lacks confidence, even if you're more scared than you've ever been. According to Amy Hoover, president of the employment board, “honesty is not the best approach in this case.” “Fake it till you make it!” they say.
“I realize I don't have a lot of experience, but...”
This is a common blunder, especially for recent graduates or professional changers. The problem is that apologizing for lack of experience implies that you're not a fantastic hire, that you're not exactly the appropriate match for the role, or even that you'll be beginning from scratch. That is simply not the case! Rather than focusing on your flaws, be positive, focus on your strengths, and go right into your transferable talents and contagious enthusiasm for the job. Instead, here are a few excellent phrases to try.

Yes! I've got a fantastic response to that!”
Have you rehearsed your responses to some interview questions? Great. However, you should not memorize them word by word. You'll find it difficult to engage in genuine conversation with the interviewer if you're overly prepared and on the edge of your seat waiting for certain questions you've prepared to be asked. And interviewers aren't likely to hire folks who don't seem to be able to hold a genuine discussion. Yes, come prepared, but resist the urge to memorize or over-rehearse the practice questions.

What the hell is going on here?”
You'd think that not swearing is common sense, but you'd be amazed how many people still do it. You're better off keeping your language PG even if your interviewer throws a few S- or F-bombs.

Well this maybe insightful for offline workers.

However If you have access to internet + browsing gadgets and you don't earn even $5 via online then you are not wisely utilizing the earning enabling resources.

All these ones na story......wetin go be.....go be.....no matter wetin you yarn or talk.

I remember one year like that I attend interview.....the admin ask me if I dey smoke.....

Boldly I reply yes..that I don't smoke cigarette...but I smoke the other one....

When list of those selected for the job was out....my name was among

OP where I come from, we don't do interviews.

If you will get the Job, you will get it.

It's that simple.

Ok, nice bro

But what about those interviewers who will leave the subject matter to go ask you a strange question ie, something that got no link or related to the job you are seeking??

HRs will always find something to faults about . They are never satisfied

Stick to the line of questions when giving answers. Talking too much may expose you to other questions that you won't be able to give accurate responses.

Ok

If the firm needs you, they don't pay attention to all these minor issues. Nigeria's problem is unemployment. Here in Mexico, they advertise and even pay you bonuses to apply for manufacturing jobs. I mean unskilled labour jobs that pay not less than 200k naira equivalent, with lots of benefits, free food, free transport, access to house and car loans worth millions of naira. If you say you wanna work, they'll ask you to start immediately. Sometimes, they'll even be dragging your cloths lol. Fix unemployment in Nigeria and forget all these dos and donts for jobs that pay peanuts!
