Interview Tips

Posted on January 28, 2015 at 1:35 pm

A job interview can be a stressful business and it’s easy for nerves to get the better of you. Good preparation before the interview is vital to ensure a good performance and knowing you are well prepared should keep any nervousness at bay.

Make sure you research both the company and the position you’re applying for. This allows you to ask relevant questions and is especially important if you’re switching from another industry. Take the time to practice answers to common interview questions. Interviewers often open by inviting you to talk about yourself. Prepare a good answer for this; they don’t want a rehash of your CV or application form!

Prepare some questions of your own, making sure to ask things that highlight any knowledge you have of the job. Also, you could ask about the values of the company. Make sure you’re well presented and arrive on time. Above all, keep calm and don’t rush when speaking.
