Anxious about your interview? Here are some top tips to ace your interviews!
We all face pre-interview anxiety, and it is normal. However, we bring you remedies to resolve
the issue and prepare you better:
Successful job seekers research everything they can about the company to help prepare for their
interview. A great place to learn about a company’s mission, values, and culture is on the
organization’s Website. Don’t forget to check out recent company news announcements, and
articles by and about its executives for insights into company direction and leadership.
Look at your interviewers’ LinkedIn profiles to learn about their history at the company and to
look for anything you might have in common -- whether it’s your alma mater, a favorite sport, or
a hobby. Making a personal connection is a great way to break the ice and knowing about a
person can help you prepare questions for them and anticipate what they will ask you.
Think of this as your opportunity to use thoughtful questions to show what you know about the
company, the role, and your interviewers. It’s a great way to show that you did your homework
and set yourself apart from other candidates.
More than half of working professionals admit to an interview “fumble.” Nothing beats role-
playing the interview to help you refine your story and smooth out the answers to questions, so
you won’t drop the ball.
