Personality Testing in an Interview :

Now, Personality is something that is build over life and you can’t change or fake

what you are not. But there are certain things that you can do and few things that

you must avoid in order to impress the Interview panel.

1. Reach the Venue a little before time. No one is going to wait for you if you are not there

on time.

2. Behave in the Waiting Hall. Don’t indulge in indisciplinary activities.

3. Wear a Proper Dress. Avoid casual attires like Jeans/Shorts/T-Shirts. You are going to a

formal affair, not a party. Wear Formal dress according to the season.

4. Always ask for the permission to come in the interview room when you are called for

your turn. Don’t just barge in.

5. Greet the Interview Panel first when you enter the Interview room. If its an All-Male

Interview panel, just say ‘Good-Morning/Afternoon Sirs‘. If there are ladies/present in

the panel, Greet them first.

6. Don’t sit in the chair until you are asked to sit by the Interviewers.

7. Sit very calmly when asked to sit. Don’t make irritating noises by pulling or dragging

chair while sitting. Keep the atmosphere calm.

8. Sit Straight. Don’t Lean over on the table.

9. Don’t say anything until interview panel asks you something.

10. Maintain Eye-contact with the Interview Board while answering the questions. Don’t

look at the ceiling or somewhere else when talking. It just gives a bad impression.

11. Not Knowing an answer is completely fine. Just say ‘Sorry, I don’t Know the answer“.

But don’t try to guess an answer if you are not sure.

12. Keep your tone polite and your voice audible.

13. Always have a decent smile on your face. SMILE is the most powerful weapon during

an interview. It should neither be a large smile like you give on a joke nor an invisible

smile. You should put on an appropriate and normal smiling face during the interview.

14. Don’t do weird things like biting your nails, scratching your head etc.

15. JUST LEAVE YOUR MOBILE PHONE FOR ONCE. Don’t take your mobile phone with

you inside the interview hall, not even in Silent mode.

16. Say Thank you when the interview is over. And calmly leave the room.

These are some of the things that you can follow in order to impress the panel and

convince them that you have a decent personality.
