@@novak9853 I looked up some psychological strategies to help overcome shyness in an interview. 1. Cognitive Restructuring: Challenge negative thoughts about yourself and the interview process. Replace them with positive affirmations and realistic assessments of your abilities. 2. Visualization: Before the interview, visualize yourself succeeding. Imagine walking into the room confidently, answering questions well, and leaving with a sense of accomplishment. 3. Desensitization: Gradually expose yourself to social situations that make you anxious. Start small, like speaking in front of a friend, and gradually work up to larger groups or mock interviews. 4. Mindfulness and Breathing Techniques: Practice mindfulness to stay present and reduce anxiety. Deep breathing exercises can help calm your nerves before and during the interview. 5. Focus on the Other Person: Shift your focus from yourself to the interviewer. Think of the conversation as a chance to learn about the company and role, rather than just a performance. 6. Preparation: Being well-prepared can significantly reduce anxiety. Research the company, practice typical interview questions, and have your own questions ready, which can help you feel more confident.
@@novak9853 Hi there! I completely relate to you. I've realized that my shyness in interviews is largely due to my lack of experience. I believe that with more practice, I could gain confidence by becoming familiar with what to expect. It's totally normal to feel this way! It might help, to practice with friends or family, prepare answers to common questions, and focus on your strengths. I think starting with less intimidating positions will also help build confidence. Each interview is a valuable learning experience, and I know you can overcome this! 🤍
@@kriistiie Thanks for replying. Do you think I should take an easier job (with low interview requirements) just to get started? I feel stuck trying to improve after failing many interviews
@@kriistiie Do you also have to go through interviews recently to get a job? I hope we can both get through this and get what we want. Thanks again for your reply and advice

What if I am too shy to get a job and don't do well at an interview?
