Interviews are the make or break of the job search. No matter how good your career record is to date, the job interview remains one of the most important steps towards achieving your career goals. Preparation for the job interview is, therefore, crucial. Before you begin the interview process you need to:
- Know your CV and ideal next career move
- Know your potential employer
- Know the interview styles that are currently in use
Throughout this section there are opportunities to practise and develop interview techniques. You may find it useful to be videotaped during a practice interview so that you can see yourself as an interviewer will. This may be particularly useful if it has been many years since you have had a formal job interview.
As well as the knowledge and preparation you need to perform well in interviews, there are some general "DO's and DON'Ts" that should be incorporated in your interview style. Click here if you would like to read about this now.
