Interview Basics


Back to the menu

  • Listen, Listen, Listen
  • Review the company literature prior to interviewing - make sure you are fully prepared.
  • Don't say negative things about your present employer during the interview. It's O.K. to think they are "heading in the wrong direction" or "aren't providing new technical challenges." It's NOT O.K. to "want to kill my boss every time I see him/her."
  • Ask questions that relate to the business of the company. Examples: market share, profit margin, add on business, how is the documentation and support?
  • Show passion and interest in your recent jobs and accomplishments.
  • Before the discussion ends, ask if you should clarify any points in the discussion.
  • Be able to elaborate on the information in your resume and explain what your role was.
  • Be prepared to speak in-depth about your accomplishes, strengths and weakness.
  • Practice before you go in...strategize about the flow of the interview.
  • If interested, go after the job! (Send a thank you)
