Do you keep your focus on the things the recruiter wants to hear?
Playing it smart in interviews helps to a great extent. Looking confident and using smart words can impress an interviewer. However, you need to have the passion and show recruiters that you really care about the job. Your communication skills might not be up to the mark but you can still convey to those that matter your keenness to get that job. Unless your job requires face-to-face interactions with clients, you can still get the job despite language problems.
A discussion around your strengths and weakness is a must in most interviews. when it comes to weaknesses, make sure you know the answer to how to work and get beyond them. Questions on strengths are easier to answer.
If you are a mid/senior level professional then you will need to depict leadership capabilities. People often equate leadership with being an excellent strategist. They aren't necessarily the same. There is much more to leadership than creating plans. You will have to give examples on how you can make people believe in one thing and move towards achieving it. You should be a good judge of people and hire the best. You should be a listener, too.
If you are fresh out of university/college then display your enthusiasm to learn. Never use the word “No“. Show your willingness to get involved in as many things as possible and treat all of them as learning opportunities.
Those more experienced should show results.Give figures, spell out names of clients you have worked with. You will have to sell on how you can benefit the company by giving examples from your past.
Portray yourself as a people's person. You can be an excellent communicator in office yet fail when dealing with vendors which requires you to be aggressive yet polite.
