What not to say during interviews

     "One wrong answer could cost you the job." Don Georgevich said in his YouTube video about things to avoid saying during job interviews. Georgevich is labeled as an established writer and specialist in resume writing and job interviews. Helping common people develop their abilities so they can land the jobs they want. Here's what he covered in the video.

1. Don't talk bad about the company. First impressions are everything. Whether it's your former employer, you don't want to come off as a cancer. Having a positive attitude and behavior can save you from not getting the job.

2. Don't show desperation when you are in the interview. In the video, Georgevich said "hold tight to your values" which is very important. The "I'll do anything" mindset may not be the best approach to the interview.

3. Go into detail when describing your previous experiences. The more detail you provide, the more you paint the picture of what value you can add. Describing how you completed a task sounds better than saying what you did.

4. Never say you don't know how to do anything. If you haven't done what they ask, relate it to what you have done. Saying you don't know may make you seem unqualified. 

5. Don't ask what the company does. This shouldn't be a problem because you should have done prior research. Asking them what they do shows that you had no preparation before the interview and may cost you the job.


    Overall, follow these five tips and leave the decision to the employer. With great preparation and thinking about what you're saying, you should be fine.
