Interviews - Closing Phase
|
During the closing phase of an interview, you will be asked whether you
have any other questions. Ask any relevant question that has not
yet been answered. Highlight any of your strengths that have not
been discussed. If another interview is to be scheduled, get the
necessary information. If this is the final interview, find out when
the decision is to be made and when you can call. Thank the interviewer
by name and say good-bye.
