Interview Tips - Closing The Interview

Closing the interview

Always close the interview on a positive note, even if you did not think that it went
that well. The interviewer may have thought otherwise
Confirm your strengths and the reason why you will be an asset to the company
If you really want the job, ASK FOR IT
If the job is offered to you on the spot and you want it, accept it
If the job is offered to you and you need to think about it, say so, stating a definite
time when you will get back to the employer
Show willingness and availability for a second interview
Ask at the end of the interview when the employer will be making the hiring decision
Thank the interviewer for the interview and end with a firm handshake
Don’t be too hard on yourself. Things don't always work out the way you hope
Laugh - it is the best medicine
