In the past, job applicants were often selected based on their resumes. Many employers believed that having a resume with a lot of experience and education meant that the applicant was qualified for the job. Now, many companies want to know more about an applicant's personality, which is why employers are turning to interviews.

The interview is a great way to learn if the applicant will fit in with the company. Employers want to see if candidates have good communication skills and can work well in teams. Employers also like to see how candidates react to stressful situations and difficult questions. An employer will not hire someone who hangs up on them during an interview or screams at them when they ask a hypothetical question. Instead, employers hire people who are calm and polite during stressful situations, even when they don't get the job offer or even when they are turned down for a promotion.

An in-person interview provides more information than a telephone interview, which in turn provides more information than a written exam or an email exchange. Another factor is the length of an interview: longer interviews provide more information than short ones. It's also important to note that while it's possible for a person to fake their own personality, it's nearly impossible to fake their body language, so a well-structured interview will ensure that this factor is taken into account as well.

Well, actually this made me remind of those early days when I applied for a job at an international firm and I got selected! My job application and resume was not at all appealing. In fact, I never even had a "job application" in the first place! All I had with me was my curriculum Vitae and my mark sheets so that I could prove that I am indeed a qualified person who is willing to seek the job at their organization. One thing that I immediately noticed was that the interviewer never actually look at my resume at all and she just asked me the relevant questions related to job.

I was feeling that submitting the resume or curriculum vitae was just a formality for me and all I need was just my confidence and skills in order to get hired! Surprisingly, I got hired by them, despite having an "unattractive resume". There are many things an employer could see in you before they even have a look at your job application or curriculum vitae. they might see your confidence, your behavior, body language, and your ability to speak! Sometimes written records do not matter! What matters the most is how a person would deal in his or her practical life when he or she face tough situations!
