4 . How to Understand the Mind of an Interviewer
Getting inside an interviewer’s head can be tricky, as their perspective will change according to personality type, professional role, and personal experience.
Research the company to determine what the interviewer is looking for. Company culture (work-life balance, atmosphere, etc.) is a great indicator of what your interviewer will want to see in candidates.
Look up the interviewer when possible.
Identify how the interviewer’s position will influence expectations. The role of your interviewer usually has an impact on what that person expects from a candidate. An HR representative, for example, will want to know you’re a good fit with the company culture and values. A direct manager, however, would be most interested in your practical ability to do the job.
Regardless of their roles, most interviewers will want to know you’ll make their lives easier.

D.So try to make a point of addressing this during the interview. |
E.Usually, you’ll be informed of your interviewer’s name before you meet them. |
F.However, you can research on the interviewer and tailor your answers to stand out. |
G.In most situations, interviewers will expect you to share similar values with the company. |
