Examples of interviewing skills
An interview provides you with an opportunity to show the interviewer the soft skills you have that will make you a valuable asset to their company. Here are a few examples of skills you can use during an interview:
Verbal communication: Throughout the interview, the interviewer will pay attention not only to the things you say but also to how you say them. Verbal communication includes the pitch and tone of your voice, speaking clearly and concisely, being honest and polite and using active listening to respond appropriately.
Nonverbal communication: The interviewer will also pay close attention to your nonverbal communication skills throughout the interview. Nonverbal communication is what your body language tells someone during a conversation. Nonverbal communication includes eye contact, posture, facial expressions and gestures.
Time management: Time management skills include the ability to plan, prepare and organize your time to work efficiently and productively. You can show your time management skills during an interview by arriving to the interview on time and being aware of how much time you spend answering each question.
Confidence: Self-confidence is important during an interview because it helps make the interviewer feel more confident about your skills, experience and knowledge.

WHAT IS CAREER READINESS??
Career readiness is the process of preparing yourself to enter the workforce. This involves learning new skills, creating goals and preparing for a career. Career readiness can help you ensure success in your workplace, teach you how to manage your career and equip you to apply the skills you've learned.
Career readiness also helps employers understand your abilities and experience. When employers notice that you've prepared yourself to enter the workforce, this may influence their hiring decision. Career readiness may also include networking events and recruitment events, where agencies can meet students and source talent directly. Career readiness activities may include mock interviews, career events, internships, volunteering and resume-writing.
