Know before attending the interview 

Branding in interviews

Today is the era of the corporate world. Everything is weighed and tested on the test of advantages and disadvantages. The same thing applies when you are in front of the interviewer. During this time, the candidates who are successful in doing their branding in the least time, the job is in their hands. Those who specialize in this work, who know… self-branding.

What is self-branding

There is definitely something special in everyone. There is a need to know and craft those things. Those who know their USP are more successful in impressing the interviewer. Anyway, when you are in front of interviewers or employees, you have only one to one and a half minutes to impress them. During this time, the whole game is commented on how effectively you can sell yourself as a product.

Job fair interview

You go to the job fair for the job interview. There are thousands of candidates here. You do not have much time to elaborate on everything about yourself, because hundreds or thousands of people are outside waiting for their turn. The challenge before you is how to give your best performance? Suppose you have done BTech electronic, then how to give your best presentation in less than a minute, then the beginning can be something like this…

This can also be a way of self-branding, where you are not discussing your interest, father's name, hobbies, etc. Actually, instead of presenting your talk exaggeratedly in such interviews, you can design a 'micro bite'. It should be such that it touches the mind of the interviewer.

Branding like add

Kapil Dev Kumar, COO (Chief Operating Officer), Myway India, says, "You must have noticed the TV ad, here companies give all the features of their product in just 10 to 15 seconds." You will have to try something similar in front of the interviewer. Your effort here should be that what you are saying should be effective. If you can do your branding like an ad, the interviewer will not be able to live without being impressed by you.

Smart look important

In the case of appearances, Kumar would say that it is important for the candidates to be smart, confident, smart because when you go in front of the interviewer, these things are seen first. Naukri.com National Business Head Sumit Singh is, 'Often candidates are not very sensitive to their appearance. They wear loose dresses and go to give interviews, which has an adverse effect on the interviewer. Another bad situation is that at times the candidates are talking to the interviewer, but they do not have eye-to-eye contact. They are talking to the interviewer, but their eyes are sometimes on the ground or sometimes up. These things should always be avoided.

What kind of answer do employers want?

On this, Kumar argues that it is human nature that everyone likes to listen to their benefit. Suppose you are going to interview for a sales job, so many times the answer to the candidates is very common… I can do this, I can do that, etcetera. But in the same way, if someone says that I can increase the company's sales by 20%, then such an answer also raises the interest of the interviewee in the candidate. Saying things exaggeratedly causes harm to itself.

Tell Kumar that it is important for candidates to be positive about the job. An attitude of a candidate can also be known in this way. Ask the candidates if they know how to run in the race? Here you will get two types of answers. Someone will say, yes I know how to run in a race, then someone's answer will be that I do not run in the race as much as I know. This shows the candidates how positive they are about their jobs.

What do psychologists say?

Psychiatrist Sameer Malhotra says that there are many candidates who start thinking about something very big. Such people are usually victims of anxiety. With this, they begin to underestimate their abilities. When they are in an interview situation, they start having problems like restlessness, nervousness. This affects their performance as well. However, sometimes anxiolytic disorder is also caused by hormonal problems. If these types of people change their minds, then they can overcome these problems. They should think that this is not the first and last test of life.
