1.3 Factors Responsible for Failing an Interview

 Let's break down factors that can cause someone to fail an interview :

1. **Not Being Prepared**: This means not knowing enough about the job or the company you're interviewing for. For example, if you don't know what the company does or what the job requires, you won't be able to answer questions well.

2. **Not Talking Clearly**: If you have trouble speaking in a way that others can understand, it might be hard for the interviewer to know if you're a good fit for the job.

3. **Having a Bad Attitude**: This means not being positive or friendly during the interview. If you complain a lot or act like you don't care, the interviewer might not want to hire you.

4. **Not Feeling Confident**: If you feel unsure of yourself or nervous during the interview, it can make you seem like you're not right for the job.

5. **Not Learning About the Company**: If you don't know anything about the company you're applying to, it shows you're not really interested in working there.

6. **Dressing Inappropriately**: Wearing the wrong clothes for the interview can make a bad impression. For example, wearing pajamas or a messy outfit is not a good idea.

7. **Not Knowing How to Answer Questions**: If you can't answer the questions the interviewer asks you, it makes it seem like you're not prepared for the job.

8. **Thinking Too Much About Money**: If you only care about how much money you'll make and don't show interest in the job itself, the interviewer might not want to hire you.

9. **Not Showing Enthusiasm**: If you don't seem excited about the job, the interviewer might think you won't be a good fit for the company.

10. **Forgetting to Follow Up**: After the interview, if you don't thank the interviewer or ask about the next steps, it can show that you're not serious about the job.
