Tips from our Recruiters

Our experienced recruiters give you some quick and handy tips on excelling an interview.

Elevator pitch

Elevator pitch

Imagine you have to pitch yourself to someone in the time it takes to go from the 1st floor to the 4th.

Prepare a short description of your career achievements, add some interesting facts about your personality and express your entire experience in a nutshell.

Know your future employer

Researching the industry and trends helps in preparing your own questions for the interview. It is important that you research the company you wish to become a part of, understand where the company is heading and where it will take you if you join the team. This shall help you make the right decisions, whether this company represents your personal values or not.

A lot of information about the company can be found on their career page or the official website as well as other internet sources.

Be on time

Be on time

Firstly, an interview is valuable business time spent by a recruiter as well as yourself.

Secondly, being punctual shows how committed is a candidate to get the job. Besides, punctuality also displays responsibility, maturity and business ethics, which are highly regarded and valued at Emirates NBD and any other company.

Practice, practice, practice

Some of us aren’t born great speakers. Let that not deter you, as long as you can deliver the right message in the right manner, which is crucial for a successful interview.

Know your resume and be prepared to ask your own questions. Practice your key messages with somebody like a family member, a friend or simply in front of a mirror, this will ease your nerves before and during the interview.

Types of questions

Types of questions candidates should ask

  • Don’t forget to send a thank-you note to the recruiter and the rest of the panel, in case you have their email IDs
  • Put your phone on silent
  • Remember the names of the interviewers
  • Sometimes, your interview participants might not have the time to print your resume, and it would be nice if you carried a few samples of your CV
