During graduation, students encounter some presentations and class discussions. Some students hesitate to speak up and share their ideas with others. While some confidently share their thoughts.
The students that fear have many possible reasons behind that. Students often fear due to judgmental remarks, mockery by others, or even from bullies. A shy student can’t communicate properly and thus unable to perform in presentations and viva.
There are many hurdles after university, like job interviews for companies. If a student is not able to communicate correctly, then how he will pass his job interviews.
Here are a few tips that might help students who are shy or have no confidence. These tips help a student to perform well in his job interview.
Before going to an interview, do complete research on the company or firm you are called for an interview. Find out their yearly profit, loss, and how they treat their employees. Found their competitors and prepare something to suggest ideas to help them in their business. A well-prepared individual is always confident, and your attitude is only enough for you to get hired by them. Many talented individuals are working in multinational companies in Pakistan and earning money.
You have heard people saying that the first impression is the last expression. So, dress correctly and do show up in jeans and a casual shirt to be cool. Your body language also matters. If you dress nicely and look confident, the person who is hiring will be impressed, and if you can catch the attention of only one person who is hiring, you will get a job there.
No doubt, confidence is the key to doing anything. People who have no confidence in themselves are not able to reach their goals. Students who have confidence in themselves can start building their future from a very young age. Many students are implementing small business ideas in Pakistan and earning money with their small ventures. So always carry confidence with you while you are going out for a job interview.
Don’t fake yourself for the interview. Always be yourself and avoid lies. Because if you can seal the deal with lies, and later they find out the truth, then your whole career would be at stake. So be your natural self and tell the truth about anything. Don’t tell stories about your life or childhood unless you are told to do so. The interview panel often thinks that a person does not have much to say, and that’s why he is making stories to distract us.
Always pay attention to the interview panel question and don’t give answers that you crammed yesterday. Be creative in giving every single answer to them. Don’t mix your answers, be alert, and prepared for their questions. An attentive and present person is always better, and his chances of getting hired are also more.
