Mastering the Interview: Steps 1-5
Knowing to master the ways to a successful interview will guarantee you will get the
position you are applying for. First, you need to establish a connection with your hiring manager
through eye contact, and listening, figure out what the employer needs from you whether it be
exceptional communication skills, or the ability to work overtime, express the benefits they
would gain if you were employed with them, work through objections, and ask for the position
by expressing your highest achievements that stand out over other candidates.
Establish Rapport
To establish rapport, you should smile when you first see your interviewer. Establish and
maintain eye contact. Be the first to say hello and extend your hand. Deliver a sincere greeting.
