2014 Recruiting Tip #3: Make Sure You Come Prepared for Your Interview

A job interview gives you a chance to shine. What you say and what you do is going to either move you to the next round of consideration for employment or knock you out of contention. Be personable and connect with your interviewer during the interview. Give them a reason to remember you!

Here are a few interviewing tips: 

Practice Interviewing:

Take the time to review typical interview questions you will probably be asked during a job interview. This will help give you a framework for your responses and also calm your nerves. Practice interviewing with a friend or family member ahead of time and it will be much easier when you're actually in a job interview.

Research the Company:

Take the time before your interview to research the company you are interviewing with. By doing this you can stand out from the people that don’t take the job as seriously as you do. By showing interest in the company, you will make a positive impression and show understanding of what you’re applying to. 

Thank You Notes:

Taking the time to say thank you after a job interview not only is good interview etiquette, it reinforces your interest in the position. You can also use your thank you letter to address any issues and concerns that came up during the interview.
