Final impressions - the end of the interview
Leave the interviewer with a positive impression.
Ask questions
You will usually have a chance to ask questions at the end.
Prepare a few in advance. Keep them relevant to the job or organisation, such as: “What training and development opportunities are available?”
Do not:
- ask too many questions
- ask questions you could answer with a quick online search
- ask about pay or holiday entitlement - wait until you are offered the job
Share anything important
If you have not talked about a key skill or experience, mention it now.
You could ask how important that skill is for the role and explain your experience.
Before you leave
Ask when you will hear the outcome.
Smile and thank the interviewer for their time.
Stay professional until you have left the building.
