Informational Interviewing Tutorial

 

Preparing for an Informational Interview

 

The day before the interview, call to confirm your appointment with the contact person. If you have questions regarding the location of the contact's office, this is the time to ask. Plan to arrive 10 minutes early for your interview.

 

Carry a small notebook and pen. Be polite and professional. Refer to your list of prepared questions; stay on track, but allow for spontaneous discussion.

 

(Don't worry... we provide a list of possible questions you can ask at an informational interview later in this tutorial!)
