Plan Your Answers to Interview Questions

During a job interview, how you speak or say things is important. However, what you actually say is even more important. This is because anything you say during a job interview helps serve to verify your knowledge in a specific domain. Your answers to interview questions will show your prospective employer if you are prepared and qualified for the job you are applying for.

You can indeed prepare yourself for a job interview because generally there are some fixed questions that are asked that you can anticipate and formulate an answer beforehand. However, avoid setting up rigid answers. Have in mind a certain strategy, a plan for your responses so that you can adjust them on the spot. During the interview, do not worry if you pause to collect and organize your thoughts before continuing to answer. These pauses show that you have not learned your answers by heart. In short, your prospective employer won't think that you're giving them canned or scripted answers.

Short pauses are very natural in speaking regardless of the situation. Except for this first aspect, there are many advantages for taking such short moments of "respiro." There can be some tricky questions and you must take your time in order to grasp them and to formulate some intelligent and adequate answers. Moreover, such pauses are necessary for the interviewers also. If you are a regular chatterbox; then they won’t even have the time to follow you and to understand your ideas.

It is definitely more appropriate to be silent than to stammer. So whenever such a situation occurs, just take a deep breath. Take time to collect yourself and organize your thoughts before you start talking again.
