Did the office environment seem like one I would enjoy working in?* SEND A THANK YOU NOTE immediately - This can be done by email or in the form of a neatly handwritten note that is mailed. There's nothing worse than asking an interviewer for a pen or piece of paper, and it demonstrates a lack of proactivity.* SELECT an appropriate interview outfit - Be mindful not to over or under dress. It will also allow you time to calm your nerves, collect your thoughts, and observe the work environment as employees past through the lobby or waiting room.* TURN OFF YOUR CELL PHONE - Let friends and family members know that you will have your cell phone off during the interview. These days most companies have a website, and it is an expectation that you come to the interview with some level of knowledge about the company's history, background, culture, and what products or services they provide.* PRACTICE answering interview questions - Interviewers typically start and end their interview sessions with a few standard questions. Bring extra copies of your resume, just in case the interviewer doesn't have it on hand, along with letters of recommendation and certificates.

Who knows? You may encounter someone whose influence and perception of you contributes to the overall interview and whether or not you make it to the next stage in the process.* SET A POSITIVE TONE - Begin the interview with a warm smile and lots of enthusiasm, extending your hand for a firm handshake as the interviewer greets you. A day or two before the interview, make it your priority to research the company on the internet. There's what you do: (1) BEFORE the interview; (2) DURING the interview; and (3) AFTER the interview. Arriving early allows you to overcome any potential traffic and parking issues that may stand in the way of you putting your best foot forward during the actual interview. Address the interviewer by Mr. as a sign of respect, unless they request you use their first name. Even if you had a rough time getting to the interview because you got lost on the way, encountered heavy traffic or bad weather, still maintain positivity.* NON-VERBAL COMMUNICATION is critical - Throughout the interview session, the non-verbal communication you display in body language is an integral part of the interview criteria that is being evaluated.

So you can imagine the volume of job applications I have reviewed, and the number of serious candidates I have subsequently interviewed over a twenty year period. Be sure that your shoes are also in great condition. If the interview is thorough, most of your questions may be answered before you leave. If you listen closely you may hear exactly what they are looking for in the ideal candidate for the job, which will help you better formulate your response to interview questions.* Have PREPARED QUESTIONS to ask - 98% of interview sessions end with the interviewer allowing you an opportunity to ask them questions. If not, have a couple of questions in mind that will make you shine. Ask for the interviewer's business card, so you have proper information for follow-up calls or to send a "thank you" card. If you are unsure of the company's dress code select a suit that is a conservative color, fits you well, and is well-pressed. Keep your notes short; reiterating your interest in the position and your gratefulness for the time they spent with you.* FOLLOW-UP TELEPHONE OR EMAIL - Give the interviewer a few days to complete the process before following up; nagging emails and telephones calls could negatively impact your ability to get the job. Also, bring a pen and legal pad, so you are prepared to take notes. All of these are distracting circumstances that are guaranteed to land your resume in the interviewer's trash pail immediately following the interview.* BE NICE to everyone you meet - This includes the receptionist who greets you in the lobby, as well as the Administrative Assistant or Staff Member who escorts you to the interview room; even people you encounter in the public restroom of the building, or in the parking lot.
