5-Ways to Improve Your Communication Skills

Introduction
Communication is a part of our daily lives. It is
one of the most basic skills needed in life, and
the most important during an interview. You can
have the perfect resume and credentials, but if
you are unable to communicate properly during
your interview, you still wont be hired.Research
by NACE (National Association of Colleges and
Employers) called Job Outlook 2011, in which
employers were asked to rate the importance of
certain skills/qualities when hiring job
candidates, shows verbal communication as the
most important one, followed by a strong work
ethic, teamwork skills, analytical skills, and
initiative.With the results of the research
showing that employers deem verbal communication
as the most important skill in their hiring
criteria, it is essential for applicants to
practice and improve their communication skills.
Here are some ways you can improve your
communication skills in preparation for your
interview

1. Dressing well for the interview
The first thing an interviewer notices is your
clothes they will surely check you from top to
bottom. So make sure you check yourself from top
to bottom before the interview. Wear clothes and
accessories that are formal, comfortable and
well fitted. As limping into an interview due to
a shoe bite might not make a good impression and
neither would an unironed pant help your cause.

2. Always greet the Interviewers and introduce
yourself

• Always enter the interview room with a warm
  smile, it shows your confidence.
• Shake hands with every interviewer and introduce
  yourself properly. Do not attempt a handshake if
  the table is too broad as you dont want to risk
  falling over the table now! Would you?

3. Know your facts and resume
Aaammm. Yaaa. Aaaa doesnt reflect
confidence, so make sure you have your strength,
weaknesses, past experiences and other such
question on the tips of your finger. Dont
underplay or over exaggerate your
accomplishments. Having watched DDLJ in Maratha
Mandir isnt that big an achievement as you
might feel.

4. Research about the company
You might have done so before submitting your
resume, but make sure to dig deep into the
companies profile before the interview. It
emphasizes your level of interest and commitment
towards the company.Make sure to mention your
knowledge about them in generic conversation,
dont act like a stalker and tell them that you
know how much turnover they have had last summer.

5. Thanks the interviewer before leaving

it, Thanks them for their time and
consideration. One would often prefer a warmer
person to work with over an grim one.On that
