Tip #2: Make an impact
When in doubt, it’s a good practice to overdress. Although recent trends have gravitated towards business-casual attire, it’s still appropriate to wear a business suit for the interview for an office position. If you mean business, show it. And remember…it’s not just what you say, but how you present yourself that makes an impression. Maintain eye contact during the interview, sit up and stay focused.

Composure in the business world is crucial. And, an interview is a predictor for us of your ability to handle pressure. The best advice is to be yourself. Let your positive attributes shine through in your interview. We’re looking for individuals who will thrive in our team-based environment.
Tip #4: Ask questions
Show us that you want to learn more about who we are, what we do … and about the job. Depending on what you ask, it may also prove you’ve done your homework. Before the interview, prepare a list of questions that you’d like to have answered. After all, this is also your opportunity to determine if the job is right for you.
Tip #5: Sell yourself
Your qualifications got you in the door. Be prepared to talk about relevant experiences, from the workplace, the classroom or volunteer activities that demonstrate the skills and attributes listed on your resume. Specific examples of how you’ve contributed to an organization are definitely of interest to us.
Tip #6: Get clarification
If you don’t understand a question, don’t hesitate to ask us to repeat it. You have a better shot at giving your best answer if you know exactly what we’re asking.
Tip #7: Follow up
It’s good etiquette to thank interviewers for their time. Make sure you get a business card from the interviewer and send an email as soon as possible after the interview. This will confirm your interest in the position.
