Key things to consider when preparing for an interview
Interview Preparation
1
Research the company (what they do, in the news, funding, headcount, research the interviewer on LinkedIn, any international presence)
2
Go over the JD in detail - and know why you are applying, clients love to ask “why us?”
3
Ask the recruiter any questions you have at all
4
Think of examples of similar duties/responsibilities/tasks you’ve done before that are relevant to the role

Research the industry sector and know your reasons why you want to work in it

Be friendly and positive
7
Remember to listen as well as speak
8

10
Be prepared with questions about the role and the company. An example of a good question to ask at the end is “do you have any reservations at this stage about my application?”
Task / Presentation / Role Play

Review as soon as you receive it so you know how long to allocate to do it
