1. Preparing For Your
Job Interview.
The Top 10 Ways You Can Prepare For Your
Next Job Interview.

2. 1. Research the company and
it’s background.

3. Grab your laptop and spend half an hour researching the
company you’re considering. Have they been in the news or
won any awards recently? Show off by sharing this in your
interview!

4. 2. Prepare some questions for
your interviewer.

5. Based on your research in point 1, have a few pre-formed
questions ready to ask that show you’ve put some interest in.
This shows initiative, and almost every interviewer will
respond well to this.

6. 3. Practice with a friend.

7. Though it may sound silly to practice a job interview, you
might be surprised how things sound when you say them out
loud with another person in the room.

8. 4. Anticipate key questions.

9. Based on the type of job you’re applying for, try to think about
what sorts of questions they’ll ask. Again, do some research
online to determine if the company has any values, mission
statement, etc.

10. 5. Have some great clothes
ready.

11. First impressions count. If you’re coming from the gym, yoga,
or just rolled out of bed, your employer will notice. Make sure
you have what you want to wear planned out well in advance of
the interview.

12. 6. Get mentally fit.

13. Get your mind, body, and spirit into the game. Engage in
positive self talk, get in a few good workouts in the days
leading up to the interview and visualize things going great.
Be positive!

14. 6. Turn off your cell phone.

15. Bings, beeps, and buzzes can be a disruption and can be very
off putting to your interviewer. Leave your phone behind if you
can. If you absolutely must keep you phone on, explain to the
interviewer why this might be necessary.

16. 9. Keep things simple and
short.

17. Avoid rambling on and on about your life, your career, your
pets…you name it. By have a framework of how you want to
answer certain questions planned out in advance, you can keep
your answers concise, and on point.

18. 9. What don’t you want to be
asked?

19. Write out answers to the questions you don’t want to be asked.
By having a very well formed idea of what you want to say to
the ‘hard’ questions, you are increasing your chances of
staying relaxed.

20. 10. Practice your nonverbal
communication.

21. Here’s where you can really demonstrate your confidence.
Stand straight, make eye contact and connect with a good, firm
handshake. This brief but critical nonverbal impressions can
often make or break your interview.
