Job Interviewing Tutorial for Job-Seekers


 

How can you prepare for the interview BEFORE you go in to meet the employer?

 

  • Figure out as much as possible about the employer's needs.
  • Find out more than the average interviewee about the company and the hiring manager's concerns.
  • Compose answers to frequently asked interview questions. Check out these interview question collections.
  • Rehearse answers to those questions.
  • If you have an opportunity to do practice interview, such a mock interview, do it.
  • If you have opportunity to be videotaped, do it.
  • DO NOT rehearse canned answers out of books. Interviewers have heard them all.
  • Transferable Skills: Be sure to point out your transferable skills, with examples that are not always evident from your work experience or education.
