An interview preparation

Before going to an interview, it is important

to hate n basic understanding about the company‘s goals and culture. Simple questions

like these can be researched in advance:

3.. How big is the company (small, medium,

5. Is it a publicly traded company?

6. What is the financial situation (stock price if publicly traded)?

7. Which partners and collaborators exist?

8. What do the most recent press releases talk about?

There are certain questions that can be anticipated and an applicant can practice answers to these 1n advance. Some of the most common questions can be found on the Internet and typically relate to the following topics:

1. Experience and education '. l '

2. Five-year goals

3. Work style

4. Worst experience

5. Strengths and weaknesses

6. Flexibility

7. Why the job is interesting


Eat Well

Taking the time to nurture the body will help concentration and mental balance. It is a good idea to eat well (healthy food) the day and morning before the interview.

Exercise

Physical activity is good for both mind and body. It is optional to exercise the day before the interview. Another kind of exercise that may give a competitive advantage is mental imagery, especially if nervousness is a prevalent problem in interview situations.

a corporate dress code. Information about the dress code can be requested from the company’s Human Resources Department or these simple conservative rules can be followed:
