Interview Tips
-
Do your research
Fail to plan, and you plan to fail. You are certain to be asked specific questions about the company, so make sure you've done your
homework on the company and their product lines.
- Practice your answers
Although there is no set format that every job interview will follow, there are some questions that you can almost guarantee will crop up.
You should prepare answers to questions about your personal strengths and weaknesses, as well as being able to explain why you would be the
best person for the job.
- Look the part
Appearances shouldn't matter, but the plain fact is that you are often judged before you've even uttered a word. Make sure your shoes are
polished, your clothes fit correctly and that your accessories are subtle.
- Stay calm
Good preparation is the key to staying in control. Plan your route, allowing extra time for any unexpected delays, and get everything
you need to take with you ready the night before. Remember to speak clearly, smile and remember that your interviewers are just normal people.
- Ask questions
You should always have at least one question for your interviewer to demonstrate your interest in the position.
