What do you do if your enthusiasm and passion aren't shining through in an interview?
Asking questions is a great way to show your passion for the role you're applying for. By preparing tailored questions before your interview, about the company and the role itself, it shows a genuine interest in the team. And by listening to what your interviewer has had to say (and subsequently forming questions on the spot), it shows you've been actively listening to them, which in turn shows your enthusiasm.

What do you do if your enthusiasm and passion aren't shining through in an interview?
Body language is super important in an interview as it can unconsciously build rapport between you and your interviewer, despite the things you say. So sit up straight, pay true attention to what your interviewer has to say, and be fully present in the moment. And most importantly, enjoy yourself! Interviews are hard to enjoy since they're so unnatural, but treat it less like an interrogation and more like two people meeting for the first time to come together to share their mutual passion (the area/department you're applying for)

What do you do if your enthusiasm and passion aren't shining through in an interview?
Communication isn't just about the things you say, it also includes body language and tone of voice. If you speak enthusiastically about a project, sit up straight, looking the interviewer in the eye and smiling, you'll convey much more passion than if you sat slumped talking about a project in a monotone voice. Even if it's a phone interview, people can hear you smile.
