(first official job interview 16yrsold)I need serious advice for a job interview please help!?
at 16 and its only a supermarket. casual. even though its an upscale supermarket you shouldn't over do it.





casual but not too casual. tuck in your shirt!!! it will show discipline and that you are neat and organizedI need serious advice for a job interview please help!?
I think that you should always look your best. In this case I'd say nicely ironed khakis, button up tucked in shirt, shave if you have facial hair! Just be confident, walk in there knowing you have the job and it's a piece of cake. Confidence. Set your mind to it, be ready for the most common questions like: ';So, tell me a little bit about yourself?'; Gosh, I personally hate that one and a good way to answer is.....hard working, dedidated, self-sufficient, team player, etc....: ';Why are you the best person for this job?'; I know I'm the best because I love what I do and I know I can offer a lot with my skills and dependability, I welcome new challenges...Also '; What are your aspirations into working with this company?'; Good answer can be,..To contribute to working as a team to share your professional loyalty to help the company succeed......I hope this can help, GOOD LUCK!!! Remember to smile a lot too!
You always want to dress up for an interview because first impressions are everything. Assuming you are amle, I would say slacks paired with a button up shirt and nice shoes (not sneakers). About you being nervous, there is really nothing for you to be nervous about. Just think of the interviewer as a normal person, as a friend or colleague. Just remind yourself to breathe. I would even do some deep breathing and relaxing before going. When I go to interviews I get sweaty hands. We all know that one of the first thing you have to do at an interview is shake the interviewers hand, so it is always good to carry a tissue in your pocket.





Good luck.
I know what you're talking about--first inteview is always nerve wrecking but you cannot let the interviewer see or feel that sort of vibe. You have to be firm and solid in your answers. Regarding what you should wear, you can never go wrong with black slacks/pants and a nice solid button up shirt. Throw a tie in if you want but if it's for a supermarket type of job, you don't have to wear the tie. Good luck and I'm sure you'll do great. :)
1) Weat the same type of clothes the rest of the workers wear. If in doubt, wear a nice polo shirt with no advertising and khaki pants.


2) Smile and have a good firm handshake.


3) Keep good eye contact with the interviewer,


4) Answer only the question asked. Don't volunteer more information on any subject.


5) Just relax. Remember the interviewer wants to hire you. He or she doesn't want to interview 100 people for the job.


6) Don't ask about paid days off or vacation days. It will seem that you don't want to work.


7) Be honest. If you can't work nights because of your school work, tell the interviewer.


8) At the end of the interview, ask when they will be making a decision.


9) Tell the interviewer that you don't know much about fruit but are willing to learn.


10) Smile and thank the person for the interview. When you get home write a handwritten thank you for the interview note and send it. No one else will do this and they will be very impressed. Good luck.
alright wear something in the middle like a buttoned up shir and a very nice pair of levi's of cackis.





some advice is to medditate, dont chew gum during interview, and tonight go somewhere relaxing and gather up your thoughts. and before your interview take a nice hot bath to relax you and listen to music that makes you happy





GOOD LUCK!
It says a lot about you that you're even nervous. That means that this job is important to you and that's great. I spent many years hiring people to work at pizza shops and I always looked for someone who was dressed professionally. You don't need to buy a suit but wear your Sunday best. Don't dress casual - you want to stand out from anyone else they might interview. Don't use slang while speaking to the interviewer. Answer ';yes'; instead of ';ya';, etc. Give a nice firm handshake. Look them in the eyes. I never hired anyone who looked shifty or wouldn't make eye contact. Relax, breathe deep and believe in yourself. Self confidence will get you extra bonus points.





Just remember that all the extra things you've done to prepare for the interview will make you a sure thing - that should help you relax. Good luck!!
Dress business casual.
