Job Search: Factors for Failing an Interview


Wondering why you are not hired? You feel dissappointed, right? Take time to evaluate and see why you are not hired after the interview.
Here are some reasons why you are not hired :

You are late on  the scheduled time of the interview.  No matter how good you are, being late is not a good start. Being punctual is a big first step to impress your future employer.

You did not made a good impression from your prospective employer. You may have shown unbusinesslike behavior while you are in their office or during the interview.

You have talked too much during the interview.   Do not overdo the interview by talking too much  just to impress them.  As much as possible, your answers should be brief and objective.
