Punctuality is critical when meeting the company\u2019s staff: it\u2019s the first sign that you\u2019re prepared to honour the commitments you will make to us. Arriving late without warning, or a good excuse, would of course leave a bad taste at an initial meeting. And don\u2019t forget that the first impression is often the right one&#8230; especially if it\u2019s the wrong one.<\/p>\n<h2>\u201cNot a team player\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>Collective effort is at the heart of Stormshield\u2019s work, and one of our core values \u2013 regardless of which team you join. Don\u2019t be overly focused on yourself during the interview, and show us how you define \u201cteam spirit\u201d by citing actual professional or personal examples.<\/p>\n<h2>Lack of research into the company<\/h2>\n<p>A leading European actor, France\u2019s No.1 cybersecurity pure player, and an Airbus group subsidiary&#8230; there\u2019s plenty to find out and say about Stormshield! Look at our website, and do your research!<\/p>\n<h2>Passive body language<\/h2>\n<p>We see body language as another key component in interviews. If you adopt a passive or nonchalant stance, it may come across as a lack of interest or motivation on your part. Not the best way of convincing us that you\u2019re the right person for the job, ready to face up to the challenges ahead.<\/p>\n<h2>Reciting a script<\/h2>\n<p>Or coming with preconceptions about what we\u2019re looking for: the interview is first and foremost a chance to share, with the aim of getting to know one another. So just be yourself, and help us to find the real you! Yes, we\u2019re recruiting you&#8230; but you\u2019re choosing us too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Turning up late This first faux pas is an old chestnut, but it still bears repeating.
