Preparing for the interview

Finding a job is hard work. You have to put a lot of time into it in order to be successful as quickly as possible. Things you must definitely do to prepare for the interview are the following.

• Conduct a thorough self-analysis: strengths and weaknesses, skills and competences, your assets.

• If you were unsuccessful in previous application procedures, persist in your efforts and be certain to show clearly why you are applying.

• Make sure you can tell the employer more about the job and working conditions that you are looking for.

• Get informed about the company, their products and their image. Show the employer that you have prepared for the interview. If the employer has the impression that you did not prepare well, he/she will consider you to be sloppy and unprofessional. Make sure you can supply a short, clear summary of yourself your motivation and your strengths in relation to the job requirements.

How early should I arrive for the interview?

Punctuality and respect for the appointment you have made are considered to be very important.
