Job Interviewing Tutorial for High School Students,
Teen and Entry-Level Job-Seekers


 

#1: Be on time for the interview... in fact, be a bit early.

 

There are numerous reasons why you should plan on arriving at the interview about 15-20 minutes BEFORE it is scheduled:
  1. Provides you with a buffer in case you hit traffic or other unexpected time delays.
  2. Gives you time for last minute hygiene preparations
  3. Allows you time to get focused on the interview
  4. Demonstrates your respect of the employers time
  5. Provides time to complete any additional paperwork
  6. Allows you to casually observe how co-workers interact with each other

 

As soon as you arrive (early) to the interview, remember to silence your cell phone And NO texting during the interview!

 

And remember to bring extra copies of your resume -- more on that issue on the next page.
