"Interview Tip"

A Question NOT to ask during an Interview!

Can I Apply for Any Other Positions?

While this is a perfectly reasonable question, the interviewer may perceive it as a sign of low confidence or insecurity. It may show that you are indecisive about taking action, which could reflect poorly on your potential.

Instead, study all the possible opportunities available before applying to ensure that you will not have to ask this question at all. This will allow you to be fully prepared for the interview and respond to their questions with confidence. #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtip

"Interview Tip"

Remember to turn your phone off.

Even if it’s on silent, an alarm you forgot about might suddenly go off in the middle of the interview, which will definitely come across as unprofessional and put you off your stride.

The same thing with buzzing. Your phone will still buzz from vibrations if you don't turn that off as well.

In many cases this disruption will negatively impact your interview.

Note that a mobile phone alarm will still go off even if your device is in flight mode. #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtip
