Interview Tips

Research and preparation

  • Research the organisation:
    - Visit their website
    - Read their news
    - Find any general or investment news about them, if possible.
  • Ask how the interview will be structured. Will there be any psychometric aptitude, or technical tests?
  • Take another copy of your CV.
  • Prepare a list of questions to ask. Take the list into the interview if needed.
  • Practice answers for standard interview questions, such as:
    - “Why do you want to work for us?”
    - “What do you know about our company?”
    - “What are your strengths and weaknesses?”
  • Take any references, code or screen shots of work done.
  • Dress formally.
  • Make sure you know exactly where the interview is being held - plan your route well in advance.
  • Leave extra time for travelling, in case of delays.
  • Ask your consultant for advice.

At the interview

  • Turn off your mobile phone.
  • When you meet the interviewer stand up, smile, say “hello” and introduce yourself with a firm hand shake.
  • Remember body language is important - make eye contact, sit up straight and smile.
  • Don’t talk too much, but do not give “yes/no” answers. Go into details but do not waffle.
  • Demonstrate your ability for the role by showing references or previous work - e.g. code examples or screen shots.
  • Towards the end of the interview try to get feedback from the interviewer - e.g. “How closely do you feel my experience matches what you are looking for?” This should indicate whether the interviewer has any doubts about you and will give you the opportunity to overcome their reservations and re-answer the relevant points.
  • At the end, if you want the job, tell them. Explain what you like about the company and how you see yourself fitting in.
