Your job interview has been going great, and it's coming to a close.
The final few minutes are crucial. You don't want to blow it by saying
the wrong thing on your way out the door.
To leave a good impression with the interviewer, your final words and
gestures should be enthusiastic and confident.
It's All in the Delivery
Are you unsure how to close a job interview? Take your cue from the
interviewer.
During the interview, pay attention not only to what the interviewer
says but also to how she says it. Notice her body language, tone of voice
and level of formality. And then tailor your closing remarks
accordingly.
But, no matter how the interview behaves, always be confident. Look her
in the eye when speaking. Thank her by name and firmly shake her hand
when saying goodbye.
Accentuate the Positive
Use the final few minutes of your job interview to emphasize the skills
that make you right for the job. This will ensure that your strengths
will be one of the last things that the interviewer hears -- helping her
to remember them.
Rehearse your closing so that you are not fumbling over your words.
You'll want to sound smooth and natural, not boastful. Start by saying how
impressed you are with the company and the people you've met. Then
transition into why you'd be a good fit for the position.
End Notes
You should end your job interview on an enthusiastic, but not
aggressive, note.
Reiterate your interest in the job, but try not to sound anxious or
desperate. Instead, express how exciting and challenging you think the
role would be -- and what a good fit you'd be for it.
Finally, ask the interviewer if there's anything else you can do to
show your strengths as a candidate. For example, you can offer to send
samples of your work if appropriate.
The Next Step
Don't leave a job interview without knowing the next step in the hiring
process.
For example, will the company be calling candidates back for another
round of interviews? Are they planning to check references? When do they
anticipate that a hiring decision will be made?
You may also want to ask the recruiter how he would prefer you to
follow up with him. Can you call him on the phone, or would he rather that
you email him?
Not only will this information help reduce post-interview anxiety, it
also shows the interviewer that you're thorough and conscientious.
