COVID-19 Advice For Job Interviews

Have you got a job interview coming up? Congratulations! Give yourself peace of mind with these COVID-19 guidelines, and good luck in your interview!

Before Your Interview

  • Remember to take a Test
    • Around 1 in 3 people who have Covid-19 have no symptoms and could be spreading it without knowing. That could be a friend, a relative, a work mate. It could even be you.

On the Day of the Interview

You may be attending a virtual job interview, which means you are already socially distancing. If you’re attending a face-to-face interview, here are some useful things to keep in mind…

  • Travelling – remember to check in if required while travelling
  • Remember to pack your face mask – this helps to stop the spread of the virus
  • Remember to pack your hand sanitiser – regular use prevents the virus from spreading

During Your Job Interview

  • Remember to keep a safe distance
  • Avoid the handshake
  • Ask for the interview room to be well ventilated if it isn’t
    • Opening doors and windows helps to blow the virus particles away
