This is a very vague question :p but anyways, there could be many reasons why people get rejected in an interview:

• Not confident
• gave an impression of not being able to handle the pressure
• slow learner
• lack of enthusiasm
• lack of communication skills
• You probably don't have the skills they require

Answer 4

I have been a recruiter for over 2 years now. The main things that I don't like in candidates are overconfidence and dishonesty. Confidence is very important during an interview but overconfidence is very bad. And most of the candidates think that their lie is not noticed by the recruiters. Let me tell you that, we do realize that you are lying but we don't let you know that we know. I do that to see to what extent the candidate can lie up to. So, my suggestion is: Be confidence but don't be over confident. Be honest.
