Greek Interview

Be ready for three to six job interviews. Prepare yourself - find out information about the company you want to work for.

Punctuality is expected, so arrive at least 10 minutes before the job interview. When introducing yourself use your last name and business title. Shake hands with everyone and exchange business cards. Maintain eye contact while talking to someone. Show your interest and talk about Greek culture and language with enthusiasm.

Do not sit until invited. Talk effectively demonstrating your knowledge of the industry and/or the company, do not interrupt the interviewer and criticize former employers.

Prepare for all kinds of questions. Questions about your personal situation are quite common in Greece, so do not feel offended by them. You do not have to answer personal questions, but consider in advance how you are going to tackle them.

Ask questions about the job, the lines of authority and your responsibilities, but avoid raising the issue of salary or benefits early in the process.

Greek Interview Dress Code

Dress neatly and conservatively. Men wear dark color suits and ties. Women should wear dresses, suits, pantsuits or skirts and blouses.
