Even the seasoned professionals get anxious or tense. The good news is that these effects usually wear off after 15 or 20 minutes. All this makes it vital for you to know your own interviewing style, so that you can keep it under control. We all have a tendency to seek out aspects of ourselves in the people we choose, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it can sometimes lead to a kind of tunnel vision that excludes their possibilities. By taking a hard look at your own interviewing techniques, you open yourself up to a wider range of talents and abilities.
Character is the sum of deep-rooted traits like honesty, reliability, and integrity.
Personality concerns affability, social confidence, and physical presence. The perfect candidate scores high in all three. But the problem is that some of these abilities are harder to measure than others, especially in an interview situation. Of the three, personality would seem to be the quickest one to come up with a reading on. But then we fall back into the trap of first impressions.
