How to succeed at job interviews (267 words) In Japan, we need to prepare a lot of things to succeed in job interviews. For preparing job interviews, it is better asking a person who works at the company you want to work about their experiences at a job interview at their company. At the job interview, you have to wear suits and tie, black socks and black shoes. You never wear white socks. If you do that, you won’t be hired. For a tie, plain colors are better except white and black, and showy ties. You shouldn’t try to be stand out in terms of your appearance. Interviewers may not trust such a loud person because they tend to think that a person who wears loud clothes may be much individualistic and strange and don’t have common sense. When you enter the job interview room, you have to knock on the door three times, and you have to enter after they call you. When you enter the room, you have to bow at them at a 45-degree angle, and then you tell your name. You have a seat after they allow. Of course, you have to prepare some answers about what interviewers will ask. They usually ask why you apply their company, and what you want to do at their company. When you answer their question, you should answer politely and precise, and briefly. After the interview, you have to bow at them at a 45-degree angle. You should keep your face forward while you are closing the door. Do you think that’s ridiculous? Yes, you are right, but it’s Japanese traditional at job interviews.
