1> Prep!
🎯 Research the company.
🎯 For every listed skill and duty in the job posting, identify examples that demonstrate your applicable experience.
🎯 Be ready to answer "Tell me about yourself." Keep this related to work, but incorporate personal anecdotes like why the company or type of work is important to you.
🎯 Practice!
🎯 Know what questions you have for the interviewers.
2> During
⌚ Show up on time.
👚 Dress appropriately.
👂🏼 Be engaged; listen.
🤔 It's OK to say, "I need to think about that for a minute" to gather your thoughts for a response.
😁 Be yourself and believe in yourself!
👣 Ask for next steps and expected timeline.
3> After
🙏🏼 Send a thank you email within 24 hours. A quick, "I appreciate the interview team's time today," is fine. If you want to re-emphasize some points or share something you forgot to mention during the interview that is fine also, but don't rehash your resume in the thank you.
📨Follow-up. If you haven't heard from the person you met with (or recruiter) within the timeline they provided, reach out for an update. My tip: do this up to twice within 7 business days. If you still haven't heard anything, move on.
