Ace Your Interview: Your Essential Prep Guide

Hey everyone! 

Excited for my amazing clients with interviews coming up! This quick guide is for you and anyone getting ready for that big interview day.

You earned this chance – let’s make it count!

Before the Interview (Be Strategic! )

  • Know the Company: Understand their mission, values, and recent news. How do you fit in?
  • Tell Your Story Clearly: Review your resume. Be ready with specific examples of your wins. 
  • Practice Out Loud: Rehearse common interview questions. Record yourself for virtual interviews. Do a mock interview with a friend. Keep your answers clear and to the point.
  • Dress for Success: Choose professional attire that fits the company culture. Make sure it’s clean and fits well. 
  • Ask Smart Questions: Prepare thoughtful questions about the role and team. Show you’re truly interested. 
  • Tech Check (Video Interviews): Test your connection, video, and audio. Have a tidy background. Look at the camera! 

On Interview Day (Be Present & Confident! )

  • Stay Hydrated & Calm: Sip water. Take a few deep breaths to settle your nerves. 
  • Channel Your Energy: Nervousness can be good! Turn it into enthusiasm. 
  • Project Confidence: Stand tall before you go in (or log on). Act like you already belong there.
  • Listen & Engage: Pay close attention and answer thoughtfully. Make eye contact. 
  • Have a Conversation: Make it feel natural. Show you care about the team. 
  • Learn Something: See the interview as a chance to learn, no matter what happens. 

After the Interview (The Final Touch! )

  • Send a Thank You: Email within 24 hours. Reiterate your interest and mention something specific you discussed.

You have the talent! Now you have the tools. Go get ’em!
