Successful Interviews
Preparing for the interview.
A job interview is one of the most drawn-out and intimidating ways of making first
impression. However, it’s also your opportunity to get on an employer’s good side,
which can give you a distinct edge over even those applicants whose credentials
are better than yours.
Congratulations!
If you have been invited to an
interview, you have passed a
significant test. Your CV and
cover letter have made a strong
first impression.
You have been selected in front
of your rivals, and made it to the
short list.
Preparation is the key to a
successful interview. The other
candidates may have similar
qualifications, skills and
experience. The interview is your
opportunity to probe you are the
best candidate for the job.
Ensuring you are well prepared
will help you to reduce stress,
increase your confidence and
improve your chances of being
offered the job.
