Before
• Ask people in good time to act as referees on your behalf. Never take this permission for granted.
• Read application instructions on advertisements carefully –don't waste time on a long letter of application if first you have to send off for an application form.
• Check the advertised job prospects and its potential. Is it really what you are looking for, or merely a dead end?
• Consider the organisation carefully – its reputation, employee relations, location, etc.
• When short-listed for interview, confirm your acceptance and then try to find out as much as possible about the firm.
During
• Above all – don't be late for the interview! You'll be flustered and the interviewer will be irritated.
• Check your appearance before entering the interview room.
• Control any nerves – deep breathing helps.
• Avoid 'fiddling' with clothes, rings, etc.
• Look at the interviewer posing the questions, and listen to them carefully – letting your mind wander can make you look silly if you have to ask for repeats.
• Don't mumble, gabble or restrict yourself to one-word answers – the organisation is spending a lot of time and money to give you a chance to promote yourself!
• Remember to pause at intervals to check whether you are expected to continue.
• Take your time over tricky questions.
• Try to think ahead and anticipate what will be asked next.
• Don't forget to ask your questions – they are just as important as the interviewer's.
• Remember to thank the interviewer(s) for your appointment.
After
• If you are offered the job verbally at interview confirm your acceptance promptly in writing.
• Let your current employer have your resignation in good time – by letter if that is the custom.
• Always part from employers on good terms – you may need another reference one day, or you may work for them again later in your career.
Remember:
Don't try to 'put on airs and graces' at interviews – it's much better just to be yourself – after all, that is whom the company will be employing.
