4 Possible Questions During Job Interview

Sharing is Caring:

Are you excited to attend for a job interview? Your first or second or third and so on. I’d like to share with you my experiences from various interviews that I have attended. And as a quality or civil engineer, you must always be prepared for your next interview, be ready and read carefully because this might be the questions to you what the interviewer had asked me.

But before we go on, you might ask “What will I do first?”

When you are called for an interview, give thanks to God and praise him because that was his blessings to you. He might have answered your prayers. Imagine that out of hundreds or thousands of applicants you were chosen to be interviewed. I also believe in this verse “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all everything good will follow unto you.”

Start to prepare your dress to wear. You might be asking “What proper dress to prepare?” Well, for me, I was wearing slacks with a polo or long sleeve with matching shiny black shoes. So you will look really professional when you are in that outfit. I don’t want to wear much like you are going to attend a wedding ceremony or an executive meeting. The interviewer would actually want to know if you are qualified and has knowledge about what you are applying for, so don’t bother yourself too much on over conscious on what you will wear.
