What concerns you about interviews?


prof.Abdelhamid Fouda 
===================================
Remember that at this stage, the people who want to interview you see you as a strong prospect. They want you to be successful, look forward to meeting you and know that you are likely to be nervous.
At the start of the day, your interviewers will be looking forward to talking to enthusiastic and able candidates and to recruiting promising people. They want to be impressed and get a feel for how well you will fit in. There is nothing worse for interviewers than to spend a whole day interviewing and have nothing to show for it. So use the interview to make their task as easy as possible by being friendly and ready to talk about yourself.
Regardless of their level of experience, interviewers will be ‘matching’ you to the criteria they have established for the job or course. This is no mystery; you have already done this in your application and have met their requirements.
Interviewers are human beings too and will understand just how anxious candidates can be and will make allowances for this. So don’t panic if you have a memory lapse or if you stumble over an answer occasionally. You may be nervous at the start of the interview, but you will probably find that your nerves are controllable and subside as the interview progresses.
In an ideal world your interviewer will be highly trained, experienced, and a good judge of character. In reality, your interviewer may be some or none of these things. Whoever you are confronted with, it is up to you to adapt to the situation.

Most interviews are challenging and you will need to demonstrate evidence of your motivation, thinking and communication skills. But they are also designed to give you an opportunity to talk about why you are right for the job or course. By preparing for it, you should be able to take full advantage of that opportunity.
