Second Job Interview
Going in for the first interview for a new job can be quite nerve racking and even more so when it is a second job interview. Basically you are on top of the world because the first interview went so well. You made quite an impact, they remembered you and you had an unbelievable first impression. Now the worries and questions kick in. Didn’t they get enough information the first time around? Did I answer a question wrong? Who am I interviewing with now?
Relax
With the second interview your nerves may not be as apparent as before. This is a good thing, just relax. With a new job, you must come in confident. While going for a promotion with a second interview it may be harder to impress those who already know you. Remember one thing: This is the second interview. You are there for a reason. Something about you intrigued them, in a good way, and you are back.
Close the deal
With your mind at ease now you can focus on what they are asking you and bring all that you got to the table. The questions could possibly be harder and require more detail by you. This is your chance to shine and show what you know. Make sure that on your trip back to the second interview that you brush up on the job and the functions required to perform. Knowing the job inside and out will make employers look at you like you know what you are talking about and that you came to shine.
Remember to dress in proper business attire
With any job interview, first or second, you need to look your best. Basically dress for success. A second job interview is not the time dress down. You can not come in looking like you just woke up. That great first impression will be kicked out the window and you will be booted out of the door.
As mentioned before more questions may be asked of you. Make sure your eye contact is on point. Questions answered the previous day or week may be asked again or asked to be further investigated. Do not stray from your answers. An employer is going to look for someone that is honest and sticks up for their convictions. The second interview is one step away from having your name badge created so just take a deep breath and do what you did the first time around.
