-- The Basics - Be on time, meaning five to ten minutes early. Be prepared with extra copies of your resume, examples of your past work and a list of references if they request it. If any of these elements are absent from your interview experience, you're already starting the race behind. -- The Look - The old adage "Don't dress for the job you have, but for the job you want," still rings true. No matter your body type, clothes that fit well always make you look more professional. -- The Smarts - When you're considered for a job, they research you. So, why not return the favor? Research the company, when you walk in the door, you should know more about them than they know about you. -- The Confidence - There is a fine line between confident and cocky and it's a different line for everyone. Take a breath before you walk in, relax and remember that the best way to get hired is to show them that you can relax under pressure. -- The Finesse - Sometimes the most important part of the interview comes after the interview. After each interview, always write a "thank you" email to the human resources director. If they provide instructions for follow-up at the end of the interview, follow them preciselyExhibiting these qualities will ensure that your job search is a short and fruitful journey.
