How to display Good Attitude during an Interview

Did you ever wonder why the hiring manager or a recruiter never called you back after an interview although you know you have the right skills? There may be several reasons to this. One, someone may be more suited to do the job. Two, the company needs a person with more experience. Three, you displayed a negative attitude during the interview.

 

Just a reminder though, just because you failed in the interview doesn’t always mean that you are a bad person. The point is, employers want to hire the right person with the right attitude as you will be a representation of the company. Not only that, having the right attitude would do you good in handling your everyday life.

 

Here are the 3 basic characteristics every good programmer or every interviewee in general should have in an interview.

 

Communication Skills

There is a stereotype that programmers are nerds with no life, play video games all day, shut inside their room, and talks to nobody. But did you know that by displaying good communication skills you can actually show of your skills? As a programmer, you will come across tasks where you need to organize your thoughts and break them down into organized solutions. If you can organize your thoughts well when communicating, asking and speaking only what is important, then you will more likely leave a good impression to the interviewer.

 

Driven Attitude

There’s nothing more attractive than a candidate who is passionate in programming. Sure, you need money to pay the bills and get yourself a nice meal from time to time but if you’re not passionate about programming per se, the employers can see right through it. You’re never going to last in a work or a company if you are not enjoying what you do. If you are passionate with your work, then you’ll most likely stick to it longer because you’re happy doing it.

 

Self Respect

If a person finds it hard to respect himself or herself, he or she will probably have a hard time respecting deadlines, co-workers, or their work. Employees who trust their judgement without being narcissists are more likely to make better decisions at work thus contributing to the success of a company. How you view yourself affects the world around you including your work. Having self respect allows you to handle yourself well even in unpleasant situations.
