Conclusion of a Job Interview How to do it Correctly?

In all process of staff pick, the first contact between the company and the future employee is the job interview. After an exhaustive search, the company considers that said profile is consistent (or not) with the employee interviewed, so the last part of said selection is accompanied by the conclusion of a job interview. That is, that moment of "closure" or culmination in which the employee is accepted or rejected to join the company (although surely the employee will not find out at that time).

Job interview

A job interview is a conversation between the employer (or personnel from the recruitment area of ​​a company) and a potential candidate.

In every job interview, punctuality, presence, behavior, the position taken by the interviewee, etc. will be taken into account. In short, everything that the potential future employee does will be evaluated in the job interview. However, this should not be regarded as a negative but rather as a opportunity to demonstrate strengths.

The conclusion of a job interview is as important as the first image that the subject must leave in the potential employer: it is proven that every interview work, conversation or dialogue that we have has two points of greatest strength in the receiver: the beginning and the end of the meeting. Therefore, it is not surprising that we have to put in effort both at the beginning and at the end of the meeting.

However, each company will prioritize, within the structure of an interview, those factors that it considers to be of greatest importance. However, broadly speaking, companies take into account the following aspects of an employee in a job interview:

1. The presence and punctuality
2. The positive attitude (not euphoric but positive) and in many cases helpful
3. Collaboration or teamwork. This is usually measured with roll playing or test.
4. The work history (that is, the previous experience that the subject has in relation to the position to which he aspires)
5. Academic studies or courses achieved
6. Letters of recommendation from previous jobs
7. Psychometric and psychological tests. That is, a psychological evaluation carried out by many companies to identify the personality type of each subject that is applied.

The request for a conclusion of a job interview

Many companies ask employees for a kind of conclusion or closure of said interview; something similar to a moment in which there is a kind of return from the employee to the human resources or selection of personnel in relation to their interest in being part of said company or not. This turns out to be a key and unique moment in which the employee can “Make a Difference”In relation to other candidates with what they say regarding the experience they have had in the previous interview / s with the company.

Mostly the company will ask if the employee agrees with the working conditions, hiring, schedules, salary, awards, etc. Of course, in these cases and unless the employee does not agree, the answer must always be affirmative.

However, in all conclusion of a job interview must leave an imprint on our personality, service attitude, professionalism, etc. Next we will see what things we should say and what things we should not say in a conclusion of a job interview.

What to say in a job interview conclusion?

• The position requires absolute responsibility, for which I feel fully qualified.
• Being part of this company has been one of my greatest wishes for years.. At this point you can highlight something that identifies the company: the good treatment of employees, the dining room (if it has one), the hours, the growth of staff within the company, etc. It is convenient not to mention salary as a priority.
• I would love to be able to start working here. Learning and growing at the work level is a constant goal in my life and I feel that this company would help me in my personal growth.
• The job position I aspire to requires experience, preparation and good treatment: areas in which I have extensive experience and strength, having met with excellent results in other companies. This is possible to say as long as it is possible to verify it.
• The company has a way of growth and performance that I feel is similar to my way of acting in life. Remember that every company has a personality made up of its employees. If you can grasp and feel that collective personality forged, then you can adapt (in many cases) and be part of a company with benefits and aspirations.

What NOT to say at a job interview conclusion?

• I have applied because the job is close to my current address
• I am interested in the salary because I need it. This is not convenient to say in a conclusion since it shows that the only interest is the economic one and, Although every employer knows that the employee works for a salary, it is not the only aspect to take into account account
• I do not agree on "X" aspect or point with your company. This should never be said, unless you want that, affirmatively, they do not contact us again from said company.
• I want to work here because my brother, cousin, friend, girlfriend works, etc.
