The Signs in Job Interviews

How do you know whether the job interview you attended will be positive?

You don't know really. Nobody does. In fact, even the interviewers would not know it.

BUT, you may be able to know whether or not the job interview you attended will be negative. There are some signs to indicate that. Please be warned though, that these are only my perception. They might not be absolutely applicable all the time.
  1. There is no subsequent interviews for the positon, and the interviewers did not discuss your expected salary
  2. The interviewers (during the first or the only interview), did not ask for copies of your certificates although you have not submitted any copies to them before
  3. The interviewers did not ask you of your earliest availability to start work

There are of course other signs, but just watch out for those three signs above. Remember that they are only my perception. But somehow I know that if you experienced any of them before, the possibility is that you were not offered any job at that company.
