Research

Pre Interview

The Interviewer

Job description

Think about how your experience would benefit the company and be prepared to give examples.

Location

Ensure you know where the interview is being held, how you get there, and how long it will take to get there (including traffic).

First Impressions

Your outfit

Making a good first impression can have a big impact. Dress in professional, smart clothing.

Get there early

Timing is essential; better to arrive there 5 to 10 minutes early than to turn up late & give off a bad first impression.
