A good person once commented that there is a time and place for everything. This is an important question when buying a car, not so much when you are being interviewed for your dream job. From the past years of my recruiting experience that I have seen even the most experienced falter and lose out just when they seemed certain to land a good job. There are some pitfalls to avoid during at the time of interview.

There is most enough literature to go around on the topic for preparation is that the luck is whenever the preparation meets the opportunity or there are no secrets to their success for it is the result of their preparation for hard work and learning from failure. This is one pit fall that troubles the talented people for the most given several people among their luck humility.

The candidates walk in to the interviews hoping to talk their way out of it. You would have been surprised how many fail to provide a clear and concise response to the level 1 question. Here are some of them. What were the reasons for the changing the job? What is your experience with the previous company? What were the reasons for leaving that job? Get your story straight and prepare with another person to articulate it. If you hesitate on these questions then go for level 2 questions will make it more worst.

In all these circumstances even if the candidate had the right intentions about their excitements and that followed made a hash of the situation. Someone famous once said about that the character is the ability to carry out a good revolution after a long time the excitement moments of that had passed. But there is by no means an exhaustive list of the candidate bloopers. It gives no pleasure to say that there have been a lot of missteps that extent the candidates from landing positions.
