Interview Tips for College Students
Good morning, everyone. Today’s lecture is about some tips for interviewing. I know that most of you are entering your final year of college, and you are busy searching a job. And some of you are searching for part-time jobs. OK, now, I have suggestions for you.
You should have the experience deeply that finding a job can be challenging when you’re in college, especially when you are balancing classes, schoolwork, extracurricular activities, and your social life. It can be tricky even finding time to schedule interviews, so once you have an interview secured, it’s important to make the best of it. What I want to talk to you about today is the tips for interviewing when you’re in college.
Before you schedule your interview,you need to plan in advance, especially when interview time conflicts with class time.(1)When scheduling your interview, make sure you have enough time to get to and from your interview if you have classes that day. If you’re coming right from class, mention that to your interviewer. If necessary, it may be a good idea to ask your professor if you can leave a few minutes early in order to get to your interview on time.
Although it’s important to give yourself enough travel time, in a college environment(2)it’s not unlikely to encounter unforeseen obstacles—maybe class runs late, a professor wants to talk to you, or a test runs over the allocated time. If something beyond your control happens and you find that you’re running late,(3)it’s good to have your interviewer’s contact information on hand so you can notify them. So it’s a good idea for you to have the interviewer’s contact information on hand in case of need.
(4)Another advice is that dress appropriately for your interview, even if it means planning ahead. So you have an 8 a.m. class and on an ordinary day, you might roll out of bed and head to class in your pajamas. But if you have a 10 a.m. interview, make sure to plan accordingly.(5)Even if it means wearing your interview clothes to class, make sure you look professional and put together for your interview. If you have to go to your interview straight from class with your backpack, a nice outfit will balance that out.
Besides appropriate dressing,(6)bringing a print-out of your resume and cover letter is a great move for the interviewers to ask targeted questions. Also, consider bringing your transcript as well if you’re interviewing for an academic-related position. Even if you get away with texting in class, your interview isn’t a place to sneak in a few texts. Also, if your phone is constantly beeping or ringing during your interview, it creates a very distracting environment and reflects poorly on you. So, make it a priority to turn your phone on silent and stow it away in your bag or pocket during your interview. So it’s necessary for you to make sure that you have turned off your phones or turned your phone on silent.
Well,there are some basic things you need to do. They are not only just a formality, but also a matter of courtesy.
Firstly, don’t walk in with your earphones in and your iPod playing. Although you might be dying to catch the end of your favorite song, put your iPod away before you walk into your interview.
Secondly, don’t bring food to the interview. Plan ahead and grab a snack before or after your interview, because it isn’t professional to eat during your interview. This applies to drinks, too—even if you’re running on two hours of sleep, finish your coffee before your interview.
Thirdly, don’t bring friends. You should go to your interview alone, so don’t bring your friends, or your boyfriend or girlfriend.
(7)Fourthly, remember to be polite, professional, and attentive during your interview. No matter how tired you may be, make an effort to greet your interviewer kindly, and be active and engaged during the interview process. Be outgoing and positive, even if you feel crappy.
Well, employers generally know that college students have busy schedules, so(8)it’s important to have an idea of your availability, such as how many hours per week you can work, if you can work weekends, and if you will be available during summer semesters or breaks. If you can, bring a copy of your class schedule or write up when you’re available so you’re not scrambling to remember during your interview.
(9)On a similar note, once you know when it’s feasible for you to work, be honest with your employer. You don’t want to end up taking on too many hours than you can handle, inconveniencing both yourself and your employer. So, make sure to be honest with your interviewer about when you can work, and if your availability isn’t the right fit for the employer, it’s better to know that as soon as possible so you can look for other positions. So be upfront about your availability.
Although you should thank your interviewers in person for taking the time to interview you, as well as the contacts who help with your job search, it’s a great idea to send them a thank-you e-mail as well.(10)Thank-you notes are not only about good etiquette but self-marketing, too.
OK, it’s time to end my today’s lecture. I hope today’s lecture will offer some help for you in job searching. If you have any other questions, send e-mails to me. Thank you for coming here to attend my lecture. Good luck!
