5 Tips to have a good job interview

Here are 5 key tips to have a good interview as a candidate; direct, useful and with a professional approach:

1. Prepare as if you already had the job

Research the company, its culture, its projects and the role you apply for. Use that information to connect your answers to their values ​​and goals.
A phrase like:

“I saw that they recently launched ___, and I think my experience at ___ can contribute a lot there”
always scores points.

2. Have concrete examples ready

It is not enough to say “I am responsible” or “I work well under pressure.” Use the STAR technique (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to give real examples that support your skills.

Example:

“When the client changed the deadline from 2 weeks to 3 days (Situation), I organized the team and reassigned tasks (Action), managing to deliver on time and maintain quality (Result).”

3. Take care of your body language

Eye contact, natural smile, upright posture and moderate gestures.
Avoid crossing your arms or looking at the phone.
Your body language communicates confidence even before speaking.

4. Ask smart questions

Don't limit yourself to: “What would be the next step?”
Ask about the team, role challenges or first quarter priorities.

Example:

“What are the main challenges you expect this person to solve in the first 90 days?”

5. Close strong

Be grateful for the time and reaffirm your interest.

Example:

“This position fits very well with my experience at ___ and I'm excited to contribute to ___.”

Make it clear that you want to move forward without sounding desperate.
