These are some tips that can help you to survive through an interview.

4.  Have a friendly attitude

    It is important that you have a friendly attitude when you go for an interview. You should be gracious with every one whom you meet.

7.  Speak clearly

    Along with your posture, the way you speak is important in deciding whether you will get the job and creating an impression. If you speak in a low voice and be shy, then it can make your impression fall. You should speak in an energetic and lively voice which will sound good. You should also speak clearly so that the interviewer doesn’t have to give too much effort in understanding what you are trying to say.

 

8.  Don’t show an urge to get the job

    You should refrain from being overexcited or eager which gives the impression that you need to job badly. You should give out the impression that you have other chances of showing your skills and work out with the complete ability of yours. It is important that the company feels that they need you to do the job rather than the other way round. This will make the chances of you getting through the interview with flying colors higher.
