How to Perform Well in a Job Interview and Create an Effective CV?

During workshops conducted as part of the Newcomers@Work project, participants learned how to make a good first impression even before the interview begins – that is, right from the CV creation stage.

In the first part of the workshop, we focused on the principles of preparing a clear and professional CV:

– what to include,

– how to describe your experience and skills,

– what mistakes to avoid (e.g., overly long descriptions or outdated information).

In the second part of the workshop, participants learned the secrets of making a good impression during a job interview – how to prepare, how to answer recruiters’ questions, and how to present yourself with confidence.

We discussed common mistakes such as:

– arriving late,

– lack of preparation,

– wearing too casual a dress or inappropriate behavior.

And also about what helps you land your dream job:

– punctuality and a neat appearance,

– knowledge of the company you’re applying to,

– self-confidence combined with respect,

– asking questions and demonstrating commitment.

The Newcomers@Work project supports the development of professional and social skills in young migrants and those entering the job market.
