VI. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Preparation is a key to a successful interview. Does the idea of going to a job
interview make you feel a little nervous? Many people find that it is the hardest part of
the employing process. But it is not really true. The more you prepare and practice, the
more comfortable you will feel. You should find out as much as possible about the
company before you go to the interview. Understand the products that they produce and
the services that they provide. It is also good to know who the customers are and who the
major competitors are. Practice makes perfect. It will also make you feel more confident
and relaxed. So, practice your answers to common questions. Make a list of questions to
ask, too. Almost all interviewers will ask if you have questions. This is a great
opportunity for you to show your keenness, enthusiasm, and knowledge.
Make a great impression. The interview is your chance to show that you are the best

person for the job. Your application or resume has already exhibited that you are
qualified. Now it is up to you to show how your skills and experience match this position
and this company. The employer will be looking and listening to determine if you are a
good fit. He/she will be looking for a number of different qualities, in addition to the
skills that you possess. To make the best impression, dress appropriately; express your
strengths; arrive early, by about 10-15 minutes; be enthusiastic; shake hands firmly; be an
active listener; sit up straight and maintain eye contact; and ask questions
After the interview, follow up with a thank-you note. This is a chance for you to
restate your interest and how you can benefit the company. Your best bet is to try to time
it so that the note gets there before the hiring: decision is made. You should also follow
up with a phone call if you do not hear back from the employer within the specified time.
