Don’t ignore this when appearing for interviews
““We cannot choose our external circumstances, but we can always choose how we respond to them.”
If you struggle with interviews, it can be because of one or more of these 3 reasons:
You are not confident of your technical knowledge
You don’t know how to answer behavioural questions
Your communication skills
The first two are simply lack of preparation and I can cover them some other time but today let’s talk about the 3rd one: your communication.
We all come from different backgrounds. Some of us were fined for not speaking English in schools whereas others conversed in Hindi or their mother tongue.
So, if you struggle with your pronunciation, tonality, and flow, it’s not your fault. The fact though is that you do need good communication skills to clear your interviews, so it becomes your responsibility to improve your English.
What’s the solution? It’s very simple…
All you need is to go to the washroom!😉 Let me explain.
How to implement it in your life?
Pick a random word (use an app like random word generator) every time you go to the washroom. Set a timer for 1 minute and speak on that topic.
Doing this consistently, a couple of times a day, for a while will eventually make you fluent and you will become more confident!
Keep Blooming,
