- Arrive early for the interview- get mentally prepared.
- You are interviewing the company, it is a two-way street.
- Be enthusiastic – you must show that you are interested in the job. This leaves a big impression on the interviewer.
- Dress to your advantage- conservative is best.
- If at all possible, do not discuss salary in the initial interview. This might be tempting, but you do not have enough information about the job.
- Be honest. Don’t invent situations/ facts that could catch up to you.
- Have at least 10-15 questions prepared to ask about the job/company.
- Always ask what the next step is in the interview process. For example, when will you be contacted about further interviews or their hiring decision. Or, when should you follow up with them.
- Follow up with a thank you letter, fax and/or E-mail. Have references ready.
