Take a Public Speaking Class
A job interview is not normally a case of public speaking, but you never know how big the audience for the interview may be. A job interview could mean just one guy from human resources or it could be a table behind which sit five or six people. The shy job applicant needs to understand that whatever the situation at hand, a job interview actually is a case of public speaking and the more comfortable you can become, the better. Enroll in a public speaking or speech class if for no other reason than the experience of getting up before strangers and talking. It will help relax you before the pressure of the real situation involved in the job interview becomes a huge obstacle.
