Fear of Interviews for a Job:-
Are you Fear At The Time Of Interview:-A change in thinkingThe first, and most important step is to change the way that you view the interview. You won't get the job, which may not have been the right job for you anyway.Secondly, this is a conversation -- a two-way process. You will be interviewing them as much as they are interviewing you. When you are not checking them out and learning what they have to offer, you are missing an opportunity that you may regret later.Calming techniquesOne of the best techniques to handle stress is through breathing. Take deliberate, shallow breaths. Take air in through the nostrils and exhale quietly through your mouth. This is a technique that should be practiced as a relaxation technique before the interview so that your body gets used to slowing down the breathing process and relaxing.Relaxation techniques such as yoga, and meditation classes, are recommended for anyone who has an extreme case of "interview fright." The interview can cause panic attacks if the fear is strong enough. Pre-conditioning will do wonders for this type of anxiety.Preparation before the interviewThese are competitive times and you should steel yourself to expect some rejection. Well, you probably aren't going to get a job offer after every interview.For every job you apply for there are more than likely three to four equally qualified candidates in line for the same job. Whether you stand out from "the crowd" will depend on your preparation and ability to show confidence in yourself --believing that you are the "best candidate for this job." How can you possibly sell anyone anything if you don't believe in it yourself?Preparation will make you feel more confident and less anxious.Fear of RejectionYou may have had a number of interviews with no offer. You may be feeling defeated, and it's beginning to affect your self-esteem.This would be true of anyone. But it is a mistake to take it personally.Let it goGive yourself credit for getting an interview -- only a small percentage of people get this far in the process. Give yourself credit for going out there and putting yourself on the line, even though it is painful for you. Give yourself permission to not get job offers. Believe that an offer will come through when it is the right offer -- the right fit for the company and for you. Take the control back and reject the feeling of fear.When you have done everything to prepare for the interview, and you are satisfied that you can present yourself in the best light possible, the next step is for you to let it go. You can learn something from each interview. Learn to enjoy meeting new people and having new experiences. Who knows you may even grow to like interviewing.
