Do you have a habit of getting tongue tied in job interviews? It would be nice if sitting across the desk in front of your interviewer on Monday morning was more like playing a game with your friends on Friday night. So whenever there is nothing in your mind or when your mind went blank and you could find the right words, the hiring manager would jump up and down and say "Oh, I know it! I know this one!" But I'm afraid it's not charades, and the interviewer isn't going to try to guess what you're trying to tell them. You're just going to get a blank stare - and you're not going to get the job.

Having command of your words at a job interview comes only with preparations. For this you need to get plenty of sleep, you should arrive early. You should have researched the company in advance. And most important you should work on those bad habits you know that you have- like many people are habit of saying "like" too much. Your interview was no accident. You know who you are. Research a particular subject of significance that you can expound on with professional insight. Learn the vocabulary so you can use it with ease.
If the person is expert in one area has the expertise to become one in another. This gives you an opportunity that how much you are committed to your learning. Practiced phrases ready to make you shine are fine. Just make sure you practiced. According to Evil HR Lady, this is very important that how you express your experience in a convincing way, she recently advised someone reentering the job market to "use the language of HR."
It is very necessary to be well-aware of various things around you. You didn't leave the quiz competitions after 8th grade. Go through the newspaper everyday, have a habit of dealing with difficult sounding names and places; have your own opinion about things - though it should not be a superimposing one. Don't let him think that you just rushed for the interview from your bed but give him something to think like you deal with things in life in the same enthusiastic tone as with your job. Actually, the interviewer wants to know whether you can communicate well or not. Don't let quizzical expressions entrap your face never react as if your face is saying "Huh?". Even practice in front of the mirror in case you feel a need to. It should not be like the story of a manager who always wanted to sit in front of the company's president in the meeting but when she got the chance, president threw a question to her which she was unable to make through; the result being that she never got back into his office.
Power words and disaster words make a list of two and keep them around for your difficult times so that you can read them over for your reminders.
