7 Ways How Not to React After a Job Interview

7 Ways How Not to React After a Job Interview

1)Don’t Pester the Hiring Manager with Too Many Calls.

-After your job interview, the worst thing you can do as a prospective employee is to annoy your potential employer by consistently calling them up or emailing them about the status of your interview. You should not follow up on your application too much after your interview.

2)Don’t Connect with your Interviewer outside their Professional Boundary.

-You should not show your interest in the person hiring you by adding them on their social media or connecting with them through LinkedIn right after your interview is done. This will have a negative impact on them about you. It’s better to leave the connections until after your application has been approved.

3)Don’t pretend to have the job before they have announced.

– Another biggest turn off employers have faced is when an applicant calls them and pretend that they have already nailed the interview and have got the job. For the interviewer this shows that the person is arrogant and over confident of getting the post. This might back fire as even if that person is rightly suited for the job, he will not be hired.

4)Don’t Talk about the Job until you have Started.

– You shouldn’t talk about how your interview went or what they had asked in your interview until you start your first day of your new job. It is better to show professionalism and keep whatever the interviewer asked as confidential about the job and the company.

5)Don’t moan about your Interview after it’s done.

You shouldn’t moan or criticize about your interview with anyone especially the recruiters who had sent you to that company for an interview. Sharing anything negative that you have about your interview experience might go deviating to the ears of your hiring manager and they will not be keen on hiring you.

6)Don’t Discuss other Jobs that you were Offered.

– It’s good to be honest with your interviewers but being too honest might not be of the liking of everyone. It’s best advised to not discuss about other places that you had applied or you had received offers from as this shows you are being greedy to get something beneficial from their company(Mostly higher salary). It’s better to keep it for yourself.

7)Don’t Forget to Follow Up with a Thank You Note.

– It’s annoying to follow up way too many times like mentioned on the first point, however it’s advised to follow up with your interviewers by writing them a thank you note. This shows that you are genuinely interested in the company and you have not given up on your application result.
