They say that the year only begins after Carnival. Don't they? If you're looking for a job, there are a few things you need to know, especially in a country like Brazil, where the lack of work is a reality and going to a job interview isn't considered a very comfortable situation with dozens of other people already signed up.

However, this selection can be made even more rigorous for a vacancy in a company and combined with the questions that are asked by the recruiter in the selection process. A job interview will serve to discover which people are qualified, with all the purposes, values and attitudes that are consistent with a company's profile.

TO DO WELL IN THE INTERVIEW

First of all, you need to be well prepared for the interview by researching all the details of the job and especially the company, as well as its mission, vision and values. Have a few questions about yourself at the ready, such as your skills, expectations and experience. Know how to express them well.

Be self-aware when talking about yourself. Never talk badly about your previous jobs. Don't talk too much or too little, limiting yourself to answering the interviewer in monosyllables, with yes or no, as this can show excessive shyness. Avoid gaffes, political comments, slang, jokes, prejudices, too much intimacy or inventing your experiences.

Say why you want this job and the interviewer will analyze whether your thinking is in line with the company's. Talk about your objectives and goals for the future. Talk about your objectives and goals for the future. Talk about your previous jobs and be honest about your shortcomings. If you have any questions, ask them and remember, the body speaks, watch your posture when you sit down, look the interviewer in the eye.

Be honest and truthful.

IN RELATION TO CLOTHING

This is a very common question when it comes to that long-awaited job interview. What should I wear? For a managerial or board position, wear business attire and try to find a middle ground between casual and social. For women, don't go overboard with the make-up, the neckline or the length of the skirt. Wear dress pants, a shirt and closed shoes.

For men, dress pants and a shirt, or traditional jeans and a shirt, are essential for a job interview. For a more casual work environment, you can even opt for the style of that company by doing more research. But always choose something more classic, in neutral and basic tones, which are less likely to go wrong. Take care of your personal hygiene, bathing, shaving, combing your hair, brushing your teeth, cutting, cleaning and painting your nails, and wearing neatly pressed clothes. This can count for a lot with the assessor. Pay attention to what you say and how you behave. Face this job interview with a lot of confidence and credibility for the interviewer.
