How to Improve Your Chances of Getting a Job.

After an unsuccessful interview, many people start to question why they did not get the job and get bogged down in self criticism. This leads to a negative outlook and can come across when being interviewed. You should never ask yourself why people are not hiring me, or why am I not getting a good job?

These “why” questions don’t provide you with an answer, they just give you an excuse, i.e. you don’t have enough experience or you are too young or old, etc. You can’t do anything about being young or without experience and it will just increase your negativity.

Instead of “Why” You should ask “How”, i.e. How I can get this job? How I can be better than others in an interview? These “How” questions will give you a better idea as to how to crack the interview process and develop confidence.
