You should know before the interview, who you will be meeting for the interview, either the HR or the hiring Manager. If you are going to meet the hiring Manager, then prepare what special to talk during the interview about the company. Something like the core business, core products and services, latest news about the company on the internet, key values of the company and the names of key people, especially the CEO of the company.
Job Description
Read the Job Description carefully and repeatedly, try to read between the lines what kind of candidate would be suitable against this Job description.
Learn more about the company and see what’s their core business is and what is their strength and what is their weakness, talk something about the strength of the company in the interview.
If possible say something about their core business and current market status of the same business but be positive, to give an impression to the employer about your knowledge and positivity.
Learn about this company’s competitors in the current market and learn what make them a strong or weak competitor.
Check online, recent news about the company, especially a new product, a press release, name of the CEO or key person in this company.
Prototype questions
There would be lots of prototype questions, like introduce yourself, your education experience, remember, “Keep the same pace of speech to answer them”. Some candidates speak very fast for introductory questions to make a good impression but immediately slow down upon asking some other question. It brings a bad impression to the interviewer, so better keep the same pace of speech for each question.
Write down some key stories of your success or achievements at the last job. Be positive for the company you worked before and never say anything loose about your last company.
Avoid any unnecessary praise of this company you give interview.
Dress code
If possible, check during interview call, is there any dress code needed, if not then ask what usually other employers wear every day, however, it’s best to wear a professional suit.
Key Words during the interview
Last but not least, keep some key words on your finger tips to speak at the time when you cannot think of right answer, something like, “Let me think”, “I think I know it but it doesn’t come in my mind now”, “ I cannot remember it now”.
