11 things that will make you sound rude in a job interview

Published by Business Insider on Sun, 23 Jul 2017


You don't want your job interview to turn into a rude awakening.One of the worst places that you can come off as disrespectful is in front of a hiring manager.You want to charm and impress your interviewer, not turn them off with bad behavior.Here are some particularly inconsiderate, potentially alienating things to avoid saying in an interview:SEE ALSO:12 job interview tricks you can't afford to ignoreDON'T MISS:The personality trait most people see as a weakness may actually be a huge asset in business1. 'I've been waiting a while'You are totally justified in being annoyed that your interviewer kept you waiting. That being said, you get no brownie points for grumbling.According to Fast Company, a very tardy job interviewer doesn't cast the company you're interviewing with in a particularly good light.But, for the sake of not burning any bridges, it's probably better to avoid calling them out on that.2. 'Hi! I know I'm late but...'Yes, it's a double standard that the interviewee can't be late while the interviewer can get away with it. Still, in most cases, that's just the way it is.Make sure you give yourself enough time to get to the job intervieweven if that means showing up super early and waiting around at a nearby coffee shop, Business Insider previously reported.And if you are late, don't draw attention to it or make excuses. Quickly apologize and move on.3. 'Are you married'/Do you have kids'/How old are you'/etc.'Keep things professional. Never ask the interviewer any personal questionsor anything that could be offensive.You'll come across as prying, and potentially a bit creepy.That goes especially for potentially insulting queries, like whether or not a woman is pregnant."If you are not pregnant, it is very much a ground-swallow-me-up-now moment as you struggle to find the words to explain to a perfect stranger that it is very much just a food baby under your jumper," Catherine Phillips wrote in the Metro.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
