I recently did a talk to a group of students and was asked to put forward 10 bullet points on how to go about the interview process.

I thought I would share them with you. They are in no specific order, but all equally important.

• Interview the interviewer (it’s important you understand the role and ask questions too).
• Be confident, not cocky.
• Have a plan when you meet them on how you want to show your work.
• Gauge the meeting to see if they are chatty, quiet, formal, informal and follow accordingly.
• Never forget it’s an interview.
• Research the company first.
• Communication – BE YOU!
• Don’t bore them, find something in common with them while chatting eg: a project they’ve done, footy team, picture of a pet on their desk.
• Be relevant.
• Be individual.
