Calm Your
Interview Anxieties
|
|
Okay, so a visit to the dentist
for a root canal appeals to you more than a job interview.
You break into hives and a cold sweat at the thought of
telling your life
story to someone you just met two minutes ago. It's
okay. Don't fret! We can help you prepare for your 15
minutes before the firing squad ... oops, we meant in
the chair ... no, no really, just relax, take a deep breath,
and read on.
• Shake
Your Groove Thang! While picking out
your lucky tie or trimming your fingernails, put on some
heart-pounding, make-you-want-to-go-dancing music. Bust
out dance moves that put Studio
54 dancers to shame. All the action stimulates endorphins,
the body's natural tranquilizers, which helps calm
your nerves.
• Take
Your What-ifs Vitamin.
Don't come down with a serious case of the self-doubts
10 minutes before the interview. Remember, low self-confidence
shows. Get rid of negative energy by breathing deep and
thinking positive
thoughts.
• You're
the Big Dog. Imagine yourself as the CEO. Visualize
landing the job and working your way up the corporate
ladder.
The positive image in your head boosts your enthusiasm
for the interview.
•
Buy Me! Make a mental-two-minute commercial
that sells yourself. You want this employer to think you're
the hottest thing since sliced bread. Highlight
all the skills that qualify you for the position.
