Preparation goes beyond just understanding and researching the company’s website and perusing the annual report; they’re a given. When I prep a professional for an interview, we get a specific game plan in place. The advantage of working with a recruiter is that they have the inside track on what the hiring manager is looking for and what to emphasize. However, whether or not you work with a recruiter, being prepared will make or break you. Start by writing an outline of how you’re going to approach the interview. Whatever you do, don’t wing it! Although you must be ready to adjust in the moment, you’ll be less anxious and perform better if you have a game plan walking in. At a minimum, you should have a job description you can work off so you know what technical skills to discuss. Give specific examples describing how you saved the company money or improved its processes. Results are what matter most when it comes to separating yourself from the competition.
