Interview Preparation
Set yourself up for success with our top interview preparation tips!
Preparation is key to making a great first impression in your job interview!
Do your research
More often than not, interviewers will ask some questions around your motivations to join a team/organization like theirs, so it’s always good to be prepared with both answers to questions they may ask, and key company information for the role.
Do your research
Make sure to look at the:- Company website
- Company careers page
- Company social channels
- Job advert / job description
Be prepared for company specific questions
Such as:What are your motivations to join a team/organization like theirs?What do you know about the company already?How would this role fit into your career goals and aspirations for the future?Plan ahead
You want to give the best first impression so it’s always worth planning ahead for:
- What you will wear – your recuiter will advise on the dress code for the interview, but if in doubt it’s always better to be overdressed than underdressed!
- Travel for a face-to-face– you ideally should arrive 10-15 minutes early to your appointment, so plan your route, check the building access, know where to park and factor in time for unexpected delays with traffic / public transport
- Virtual / Phone interviews – treat these with the same care as a face-to-face, and ensure you have good Wi-Fi / phone signal and have a quiet room to conduct this in
