4. Step 1
Attire
Wear a suite! No matter what the dress code for the company. I
say again, wear a suit!
What to bring?
1) Multiple good copies of your latest resume.
2) A sheet listing your professional references. Prepare a list of
professional references that you can give them and that they can
contact, just in case they ask you for references. Make sure the
people you use as references know that you are looking for a new
position and that they might be contacted

5. Step 2
Research the organization and the position
Learn as much about the company and position you are applying
for before you go to the interview. Visit the company’s web site
or read company literature. Analyze the job description and try
to match your experiences, interests, and abilities to their
requirements for the position. Visit the SMU Career Services’
web site at www.smu.edu/career and investigate links related to
your particular occupational field.

6. Step 3
Know yourself
Prepare to discuss your strengths, weaknesses, educational and
work experiences, personal goals, and values. Read the job
description thoroughly, anticipating questions which focus on your
qualifications, their organization, and how the two fit together.
Among questions you may be asked are:
Tell me about yourself ?
What are your goals?
Why do you want to work for this company?
Why should we hire you?

7. Step 4
Make a list of questions to ask them
The questions you ask (or do not ask) will reveal much about your
level of interest in the company, and your level of preparation for
the interview. Ask questions which demonstrate a genuine interest
in and knowledge of the company and position. Although each
situation will warrant specific inquiries, some suggested questions
are:
What characteristics do you look for in a person to have
success at your company?
What are a few of the problems I will be expected to
solve?
