Prepare ahead of time

Make sure you can explain everything you have set out in your resume. Have examples of your skills and experience to discuss. Think about your strengths and any weaknesses, and how you plan to overcome these.

Know about the company

Visit their website and find out more about what the organisation does so you can answer why you wish to work for them.

Be on time and well dressed

These days, the interview is likely to be online. Present yourself well, be on time, turn off your phone and ensure you have no other background distractions. Speak clearly and confidently. 

Answer questions that relate to the job

Stick to questions that cover the job you have applied for. You could discuss a special project you have been successful in. Avoid talking about politics, religion, anger over past jobs or family problems. 

Prepare any questions you have

Be ready to ask about the organisation, your potential job role, training and development opportunities, and how your performance will be measured.
