Interview Tip of the Month: Take the Water
|
If your interviewer offers you a glass of water, take it -- even if you're not thirsty! Here's why:
- It's polite. Accepting it starts the interview on a positive note and gives you a chance to say, "Yes, please," as well as, "Thank you." These are small, yet important phrases that display your manners and instantly build rapport.
- It's a prop that can buy you time. If the interviewer throws you a curveball, you can take a moment to grab a sip of water while you formulate your answer to a tough question.
- Your mouth might actually get dry. Thirty minutes into an interview, you don't want to be that person whose tongue gets cemented to the roof of their mouth.
