Once you’ve landed a job interview, in the perfect job you’ve been looking for (remember that it’s vital that you seek the right job), it’s time to get smart and get ahead of the pack of other job hungry candidates.

Whether you have a straight face-to-face interview or it’s a phone call to thin out the candidate group, there is a way to go about an interview that gets results.

So, how do you do that?

Here are the top 5 ideas to help you:-

1) Build a small list of example experiences that you have had and link them to the job you are going for

2) Be prepared to talk about these experiences positively and about what you did personally

3) Make a good impression by engaging your interviewer in an informal conversation outside the interview if you can

4) Answer questions you are asked with information - remember this is for you to show your stuff and not be shy

5) Ask a few interesting questions to show you have an understanding of the job and/or organization

So there you have it, using and developing your job search skills to understand and then find the job you really want - then using great interview tactics to get the job on the day.

What are you waiting for? Get to it!
