These following tips may help you make a good impression on your job interviewer during the interview: Before entering
enquire by saying, "May I come in sir/madam?". If the door was closed before you entered, make sure you shut the door
behind you softly.
Look at the interviewer and confidently say 'Good day sir/madam'. If the interviewer wants to shake hands, then offer a
firm grip first maintaining eye contact and a smile.
Seek permission to sit down. If the interviewer is standing, wait for them to sit down first before you take your seat.
An alert interviewee would diffuse the tense situation with light-hearted humour and immediately set rapport with the
interviewer. The interviewer normally pays more attention if you display an enthusiasm in whatever you say. This
enthusiasm comes across in the energetic way you put forward your ideas.
You should maintain a cheerful disposition throughout the interview. A little humour or wit thrown in the discussion occasionally
enables the interviewer to look at the pleasant side of your personality.

confidence. Maintaining an eye contact is a difficult process. As the circumstances in an interview are different, the value

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
Cambridge University is considering axing compulsory written exams, allowing students to use laptops or iPads instead,
after tutors complained that students’ handwriting is becoming illegible. Academics say the move, which would bring an
end to over 800 years of tradition, has come about because students rely too heavily on laptops in lectures, and are losing
the ability to write by hand.
Dr Sarah Pearsall, a senior lecturer at Cambridge University, said handwriting is becoming a “lost art” among the current
generation of students. She added, “It’s increasingly hard for our examiners to read students’ scripts. Those with illegible
writing are forced to come back to their college during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud in the presence of
two university administrators. It’s extraordinarily commendable that the University is considering reforms to its
examination practices.”
Sir Anthony Seldon, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Buckingham, said it is inevitable that universities will move to
computers as handwriting deteriorates in the coming years. “We have to accept the reality. Handwriting has now become
an optional, not a necessary, part of education. There simply isn’t the same time in the curriculum for learning elegant,
beautiful handwriting. Life is so quick now. Everybody writes as if they were a doctor writing a prescription,” he said.
“Handwriting is not necessary for great thought, great English, or great intelligence. Some of our finest wordsmiths today
write using laptops, and we have to fight to preserve what is really important, such as the use of great English or great
sentence structures.”
Others, however, were not very positive about the move. Tracey Trussell, a handwriting expert, urged Cambridge to ensure that
students continue to write by hand. She said, “It’s vital that people continue to write by hand. Writing by hand improves memory
and equates to a higher rate of comprehension and information retention.” There is also concern that schools could follow
Cambridge’s example by moving away from handwriting. Dr Jane Medwell, Associate Professor of Education at the University of
Nottingham, is concerned that scrapping handwritten exams in universities could prompt “downward curriculum pressure” on
primary and secondary schools to follow suit.
