Here are some things you can do to help you prepare:
• Find out what type of interview it is and who will be in attendance.
• Confirm the exact place and time of the interview; do a dry-run to test the journey length.
• Know your interviewer; we now live in a social media world so use this to your advantage
(particularly LinkedIn)
• Research the company and know some of their latest news, customers and history.
• Refresh yourself with your CV and application forms, make sure you know everything you need
to.
• Prepare and practice your interview questions, ask your consultant to listen and feedback.
• Look the part and make a visual impact.
• Finally turn your mobile phone OFF!

Preparation done, you’re in the saddle
• You are there because the employer wants to hire someone. Make sure it is you by starting the
interview in the right way and make their first impressions a positive and lasting one.
• How? Seeing as only 10% of our communication is verbal make sure you sit up and lean
slightly forward to express your interest as soon as you sit down. Also demonstrate your
curiosity and interest by maintaining eye contact whilst they are opening up the interview.
• When answering the questions use hand gestures to express yourself and involve the
interviewer in your answers. Also make sure you can back up your answers with clear evidence
6
And finally, remember to end the interview with a positive closing comment: Let them know
you look forward to hearing from them, or that you would welcome the opportunity to work
for them.
