Interview Preparation
Prepare
Be ready for interview questions, have some well considered questions to ask the interviewer and dress appropriately.
Identify Key Persons
Know who are you meeting. Research their job title and relationship to the job you have applied for.
Job Profile
Find out what the job on offer entails. As your recruitment agent we will provide you with a detailed job specification.
Plan Ahead
Get a location map and contact telephone numbers. Have money and mobile phone (if possible) to hand. Allow yourself additional time to ensure you arrive on time.
Company Research
This is critical. Try to source company brochures and have a thorough review of the company website. Most companies today have a website and they expect you to have researched their company. In particular you should have knowledge of:
- The company’s core activities.
- The history and origins.
- Where the company operates.
- The type and number of company employees.
- Current initiatives and future plans.
- Who the head of the organisation is.
- Any recent press comments.
