One thing that will be of a <strong>great importance<\/strong> and includes various soft skills is <strong>emotional intelligence<\/strong>. More companies are willing to hire people that show <strong>high emotional intelligence<\/strong>, which means that showing your potential for skills during a job interview is inevitable. <strong>How do we demonstrate emotional intelligence in a job interview?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The first thing, which is crucial to <strong>succeed in an interview<\/strong> is to <strong>actively listen to the question<\/strong> being asked. Employers are rather looking for a reply that was <strong>thought through carefully<\/strong>, than an immediate reply that answers the question vaguely. Also, don\u2019t be afraid to <strong>assure whether you understood the question correct.<\/strong> It\u2019s better to ask the interviewer to repeat the question, than giving an answer that doesn\u2019t fit the question.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Moreover, when the interviewer ask a question about your achievements, <strong>sharing credit with previous team members<\/strong> always makes a good impression. It shows the <strong>capability of team work<\/strong> and <strong>valuing every member<\/strong> that took part in a project. Speaking of achievements, talking about weaknesses doesn\u2019t necessarily have to be a bad thing. Stressing out how <strong>mistakes helped by improving yourself<\/strong>, frames it as something that is a strength.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition to that, <strong>the things that you don\u2019t say are as powerful as the things that you do say<\/strong>. In many interview situations, interviewees want to illustrate their value in a limited amount of time. This can lead to a feeling of either <strong>stress or excitement<\/strong>. A useful tip is to <strong>pause before answering a question<\/strong>. This shows, that you take your time to think about the question thoroughly. Besides, your <strong>body language<\/strong> can show what kind of a person you are or which <strong>emotions<\/strong> you feel after certain questions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At the end, when the job interview is almost finished, <strong>it\u2019s your turn to ask some questions<\/strong>. This is a great opportunity to demonstrate if you have high <strong>emotional intelligence<\/strong>. By asking the interviewer questions about the company, <strong>previous projects or their way of working<\/strong>, you show interest in working for this certain company. However, instead of simply outlining that you want to get the position, the focus should be on the <strong>impact you want to have<\/strong> and how you want to <strong>succeed in the job<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All in all, job interviews are situations that can cause a<strong> feeling of stress and tension<\/strong>. However, the aspects mentioned above can help a lot when preparing for an interview.\u00a0<strong> Emotional Intelligence<\/strong> is something that you can\u2019t show by talking about your CV, profession or technological qualifications. <strong>Emotional Intelligence includes many soft skills that are vital for every company, and that should not be underestimated<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":18040,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":0,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","myguten_meta_block_field":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[98],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18039","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18039"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18039\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/strammer.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
