In what general area do you need help?

Dress appropriately.

Do your homework about the company.

Make sure your CV is tight with no grammatical errors.

Think about all the potential questions you'll be asked and take time now to formulate a response.

The interview is them seeing if you are what they're looking for, and you seeing if they are what you're looking for.

So before you go in to interview, you should at least consider that you will have to spend 40 hours a week at this place.

What will it be like?
What do you need to know about working there?
What will your career look like if you start with this position?

You're making a big commitment if you take the job, so before you go in, think of 5 things you'd really like to know about the place first. Things that are important to you.

What 5 questions do you really want to ask them?


Then if you like the company and the position at the end of the interview, ask if you're the type of candidate they're looking for. Hope they say some variation of 'yes' and say, "Great. I think I'd be a great fit. What are the next steps from here?" Then you'll know the timeframe for hearing back, and any follow up steps they'd like to take.

If the job isn't what you thought it'd be and you'd hate your life if you worked there, don't bother asking. Just say, "I'm glad we had this interview, but I don't think this job is what I'm looking for. Good luck in your search."

If you want to really stand out, write a handwritten thank-you note to the interviewer afterwards. It used to be de rigeur but the majority of people have abandoned the practice. An older person may think it mandatory that you do so, and a younger person will likely remember you over other candidates.
