The first thing your interviewer will see is you. They will expect to see a person who can present themselves in a professional and pleasant manner. 4. Play the part. Prepare yourself for questions that you are sure that the interviewer will ask you. 5. Get yourbackups in place. Be prepared to have personal references available for you. These are people who you know will speak highly of you. 6. Your arrival at the interview. Be sure to arrive early. NEVER be late. Introduce yourself to the person at the reception desk and inform them that you have an appointment and the name of the person you are going to meet. 7. Documents. If you have been instructed to doso, be sure that you have brought all of the necessary documentation with you. 8. Shine. This is your opportunity to really sell yourself. Take advantage of this opportunity. Remember, there are others waiting for their turn at the personal interview. Present yourself as a professional, enthusiastic, intelligent individual. You want the interviewer to remember you. 9. Questions. Ask questions.There will be things that you want to know. From the information that you gathered you can formulate pertinent questions about the job, the company or it’s products. Don’t ask questions like How many weeks vacation do I get? Focus on questions that will show that you are interested in the job, the company and what the company does. Remember, you are the interviewee and not the interviewer. 10. Afterthe interview. Don’t think that the interview is over when you walk out of the office. Sending a thank you note expressing your desire and interest in working for their company will remind the interviewer of who you are.
