Why do some people don't perform well in interviews even though they have good knowledge of the skills ? How can they get selected in interviews ?

There can be many reasons why someone might not perform well in an interview despite having the necessary skills and knowledge. Some possible reasons include:

1. Nervousness or anxiety: Some individuals may become nervous or anxious during an interview, which can make it difficult for them to think clearly or communicate effectively.

2. Lack of practice: Interviewing is a skill that takes practice to master. If someone has not had much experience with interviews, they may not know how to present themselves in the best light.

3. Poor communication skills: Even if someone has the necessary skills and knowledge, they may not be able to effectively communicate that information to the interviewer if they lack strong communication skills.

4. Not understanding the interviewer's perspective: Some candidates fail to understand that the interviewer is not just evaluating their technical skills but also the "soft skills" such as their attitude, motivation, and fit with the company culture.

To improve their chances of getting selected in an interview, an individual can:

• Prepare by researching the company and practicing common interview questions.
• Try to stay calm and composed during the interview by taking deep breaths and focusing on the present moment.
• Practice effective communication skills, such as active listening, clear speaking, and making eye contact.
• Try to understand the interviewer's perspective and tailor the answers to the company and the job.
• Show enthusiasm and motivation for the job and the company.
