And if you think you'll be involved in multiple interviews there's some advice for you here.

Interview Nerves

Everyone gets nervous before an interview. Remember one thing though -- the interviewer probably is too (we interview and sometimes we get nervous!).

Don't forget that the interviewer is just trying to solve a problem -- they need someone in that job. The interviewer is NOT trying to test you or to find fault. They are matching you with that vacancy. They want the vacancy filled as much as you want the job!

So here's our advice on coping with nerves.

Interview Body Language

Did you know that only about 17% of communication is verbal? The other 83% of what you communicate is through other signals you send out, like body language, intonation in your voice and so on.

When you speak or answer a question, the words you use only convey part of the message. You can give a great answer but if you say it without conviction, the interviewer may doubt how much you believe what you are saying.

So read our advice on interview body language.
