Interview Advice 
First impressions count so make sure that the moment you enter the building you are courteous to all members of staff. People often make their mind up about somebody within the first few moments of meeting them, so you don’t want to get off to a bad start. An employer is interested in your personality just as much as your paper qualifications. Often the interview performance is the key deciding factor on candidate selection. Aim to impress from the start.
Preparation

Most companies have a website so this should be your first port of call. Familiarise yourself with the companies products, future goals, previous achievements and business sectors. If the company has a sizeable web presence then you could jepordise your chances by not undertaking any research. If the company has no website then try the web search engines as there may have been articles written about them. If all else fails then ring them up and ask for some company information.
