How to refuse an interview

When many friends are looking for a job interview, because they are not sure which company will send them an offer, they first screen out the companies they are interested in and suitable for. However, it will inevitably lead us to be invited for interviews in a different order, so we must choose among multiple jobs and refuse others at the same time, but many people in the workplace don't know how to refuse. Let's see how to refuse an interview.

First, refuse directly.

I have to mention "avoidant personality" here. An avoidant personality will not refuse others, no matter what others ask, he will not refuse. Maybe it's not a bad thing for a friend to have this personality, but in the workplace, people with this personality are easily labeled as "honest people", so from the moment of interview, this personality should be changed.

After submitting your resume, when the other party sends you an interview invitation, if you don't want to go and have a better choice, you might as well just tell the other party that you have a better choice and don't go for an interview. This has two advantages: one is to save yourself trouble and save time and cost; At the same time, it also saves the other person's time and allows the other person to directly find other interviewers.

Second, politely refuse.

If we can't say such straightforward words, then we can choose a tactful way to refuse, and the most important core of such a reason is "neither refuse nor promise." Many enterprises will consider the actual situation of employees when interviewing employees. If they are riding a donkey to find an offer from another company, they can first tell each other an ambiguous reason, such as an excuse that they are not available that day after thinking about it. If the other person is in a hurry, she will.

The advantage of this is that we have enough time to think about whether to accept the job or not. If we really decide not to go to this company, we can inform each other, send an email, call or send a text message, and choose the way that suits us to avoid the embarrassment caused by direct conversation.

Third, accept it directly

Maybe many people think that since I don't want to go to this company, there is no point in accepting an interview, whether it is direct or euphemistic. This is a fact, but from the perspective of people in the workplace, isn't it also an opportunity to exercise yourself and increase your knowledge? Why not make good use of it?

Although this is not good for the enterprise, if you communicate with HR, you may have a new definition of this enterprise and this job, you may choose this enterprise again, and you may be eliminated by this enterprise. This experience is very valuable. Instead of refusing to waste, it is better to accept the interview invitation directly and experience it. Even if you are eliminated in the end, you have accumulated valuable experience, which is good for your future interview.
