Dental Dreams Lesson 7 : How To Do Well In Interviews
(C)
Be in the Same Wavelength
the trick of GOOD Oral exam is, to get yourself on the same wavelength as
that of your examiner. When two trains are running parallel at the same
speed you can easily jump from one to the other without falling down.
Like YOU are here to Impress your examiner, you as Examinee TRY to gauge
your examiner. That will give you an Insight into his Mind.
Once you have that It will be Easy for you to know what he expects out of you.

How To Answer The Questions
Understand EACH Question Clearly.
In case you couldn’t get the question 1st time, Ask again of course with a pardon.
Keep your answer like a Potato wafer (CHIP) – CRISP & FRESH.
- Crisp= hard enough, to the point, extremely relevant, don’t go on & on enough and in your Own words, try to Phrase it nicely
- Fresh = Pertinent
- Answer Long or short according to the question.
- If you do NOT know the answer or if you have gone blank suddenly please ADMIT it openly. That way you may get a second chance OR at least some Marks.
- Never try to beat around the bush.
- If you are not sure about the current topic at all, request for another topic of which you may be confident, if necessary.
- Try and maintain a Sweet but clear voice, it is Impressive.
- Never shout or speak softly.
- Control the emotions of your face. As it is rightly said – Face is the mirror of your mind. So if you get overtly tensed and it shows on your face – then it acts a negative point for your interview.
- Never Ever get in to mode of confrontation with the examiners who are interviewing you. That’s why controlling you r emotions matters so much. Though its very rare, but there are cases when many candidates have knowingly or unknowingly entered in to a state of argument with the examiners. In such a scenario you can just say good bye to your chances of getting selected.
- Keep in mind – “1st Impression is the last impression” – particularly in case of interviews. There is not going to be a retake. So, it doesn’t matter who you really are. That’s for latter. But when its time to face interview, be at you best behaviour and sense.
- Brush Your Mouth ! – Yes ! Don’t ever go to any interview after eating some strong odour food like garlic, onion or meat. Even if you do eat – make sure you brush your teeth properly. Last thing you want for the examiner to avoid your answers due to halitosis.
- Believe in yourself – You are sitting in the interview because of your caliber. So believe in your self and be confident.
