We get it - job interviews can feel nerve-wracking. With the right mindset and a few smart tips, you can walk in feeling confident and leave a lasting impression. Here’s how to shine:

✅ 1. Do Your Homework

Know the company, the role, and why you want it. Check out the company's website, social media, and recent news. You’ll stand out if you show you’ve done your research.

✅ 2. Practice Makes Progress

Run through common questions with a friend or in front of a mirror. Think: “Tell me about yourself,” “Why should we hire you?” and “What are your strengths and skills and what areas are you looking to develop”.

✅ 3. Dress for the Role

First impressions matter. Dress one step above the job you’re applying for - clean, neat, and professional.

✅ 4. Show Up Early

Aim to arrive 10 minutes early. It shows respect for their time and helps you settle your nerves before the interview starts.

✅ 5. Be Real

People hire people who will fit into the team and that they will be able to trust. Be authentic, smile, and let your personality shine. Confidence isn’t about having all the answers - it’s about being calm and coachable.

✅ 6. Ask a Good Question

At the end, ask something thoughtful like: “What does success look like in this role?” It shows you're serious and forward-thinking.

✅ 7. Follow Up

Send a short thank-you message after the interview. Gratitude never goes unnoticed.
