Ahmad Zul Afif
A common question is "tell me about yourself." There is no need to explain about your family, your previous school and stuff like that. No need! Just tell the interviewer all of your specialty and ability. Convince them to hire you with your high level of confidence.

Alex Lee
In multi-stage interviews, the most important is consistency. That is, the ability to perform well consistently in all stages as opposed to excelling in one stage while failing in another. Thus, remember to always maintain focus and most importantly, be modest.

Sarah Ridhuwan
On the day of the interview, there are probabilities that something may happen to prevent you from getting to your interview on time or at all. Always call and inform the interviewer your situation preferably before the scheduled interviewing hour. Ask politely for another interview. If they have to call you to find out what happened, the chances are there will not be a second call.

Thilaga K. Ganapathy
Always be positive and share only the good experiences of your past achievements and work experiences. Never complain about your previous employer but keep sharing the positive points of your past employers to build the trust of the interviewer. Try not to give yes and no answers. Be open to the interviewer’s questions. Never lie about yourself but explain yourself tactfully. If you make any blunder in the interview, be frank and polite enough to apologize. This ensures your honesty.

Tan Tong Hiang
Prepare a copy of the documents of your work or projects. Present them during the interview and leave the interviewer a copy. By doing this, the interviewer may have a better image of you.

Ng Siew Kum
There is only one chance to make a good first impression. Always attend interviews dressed in complete office wear. For the ladies, a proper suit set, be it pants or skirt. Tuck in your shirt/blouse or else you will look frumpy. Do not forget proper shoes and a little make-up. For the men, although a jacket is not a necessity, make sure you look coordinated. A nice, sober-looking tie is highly encouraged.

If you do not know the location of the interview/office, try to find out a day earlier so that you will not get lost or be late. It will not impress the interviewer if you are lost as this shows a lack of initiative on your part.

No matter what position you are applying for, being presentable at an interview is still essential.

The interviewer is more interested in a person's capability and suitability to the job. Communication skill is important but first impressions, track record in previous companies, skills and competencies related to the job are also important. Jobs involving international work requires a person to be strong in the English language. The applicant should not detract from the original task of answering relevant questions from the interviewer. Keep personal matters to the minimum. Never bring newspapers or drinks to the interview session.

Lincoln Leong Wen Yoong
Do not stare blankly at the interviewer when they make comments on general issues such as the current technological trend or the current economical situation.

Making statements like "I understand the current situation is...", "I realise..." or providing additional facts to his comments will help the interviewer to know that you are on the same track as he is.

Be punctual when attending interviews. Depart early from home to ensure you reach safely and on time. Have some time to tidy your clothes and ensure that you look good before the interview. Unless there is any emergency, reasons like "I am caught in a traffic jam" or "I am lost and don’t know the way" are not accepted. If you are not sure whether or not to go for the interview, do ask for at least a day before you reply to the HR to avoid any cancellation of the scheduled interview later.

Do prepare yourself by refreshing all the projects and accomplishments in your current/previous employment. Do not be too lengthy in the details that you provide. Be precise and to the point.

Give a period of a time when you will be able to get up to speed in a similar situation. Companies are interested in candidates who are aggressive and willing to learn.

Hazlene Binti Ahmad Fuzi
Usually, before I attend any interview, I survey the place first: how to go there, what is the nearest public transportation? This is to avoid coming late on the interview day and making you more nervous. Even if the company is famous and familiar, I survey first so that I know exactly which road to take, which turn to make and most important, where to park the car.

Goh Ching Kai
Most jobs require you to learn after you get the job. Rare is the case that you can do the job well without learning. Thus, do not act smart like you know everything about the job. Show your attitude that you are always ready to learn, improve and have interest in the things you are going to face. Companies look for talent who can improve instead of a genius who rejects to learn.
