10 INTERVIEWING TIPS By: Natascha Saunders, MBA, MS
1. ASK QUESTIONS It will help you decide if you want the job, it also shows that you are really interested in the company.
2. RESEARCH Check out their website for their mission, departments, headline news, etc. You will look like you did your homework.
3. SWAGGER Get a good night sleep and eat a good breakfast or lunch. Then brush your teeth, use mouthwash & floss.
4. DRESS Make sure you are dressed appropriately nothing tight, hanging, showing, dirty, wrinkled, no perfume or cologne or very, very light (someone may be allergic) etc.
5. BE EARLY 15 minutes is on time (not too early) & on time is late!
6. RESUME & REFERENCE COPIES Carry them in a folder with pen and paper.
7. MANNERS Firm handshake and wait to be asked to take a seat. Sit up straight, do not fidget, don not scratch, do not touch your face/nose, socks, belt, hair etc.
8. EYE CONTACT Shows honesty and confidence but do not stare
9. PAY ATTENTION & BE CONFIDENT Do not over do it but its okay to talk about your accomplishments (have proof if you can; such as a career portfolio)
10. THANK YOU NOTE E-mail, stationary or card
