The second step in getting the job is meeting the potential employer for an interview. The first step that an applicant has successfully completed was sending your application and passing the screening process of the company.

There are a number of ways that a CV will reach an employer, either through a website where the jobs vacancies were posted, a referral from a fellow business manager, through a head hunter or simply by having it sent directly to them.

When you have a job interview, remember these following tips.;

Before going to an interview, it is best to do some research about the company one is applying to.

You might like to think about questions that you will be asked, which can be found on job websites, and have a friend or family member practise your responses.

You should aim to arrive 10 minutes before your appointment so that you demonstrate punctuality, although arrive too early and you will alienate the employer because you have inconvenienced them.

Your CV will be the main piece of information that the interviewer has about you so take a copy along with you so you can answer any specific questions. if you have a portfolio that demonstrates your work you should take this for the interviewer to look at.

It is always best to dress appropriately. An employer will not be convinced that you are sincere about the job if you turn up underdressed or scruffy. Even small things like your fingernails and hair should be kept groomed. The outfit worn should be professional. This would mean that shoes must be used to match the outfit. If you typically wear a lot of jewellery, it is advisable to remove and tone it down for the interview.

You need to start your interview off in a positive manner so give a warm smile and firm handshake to your interviewer.

During the course of the interview, listen very well to the questions asked. Do not sell yourself short but accurately explain all of your skills and experiences so the interviewer gets to know the best of you.

Thank the interviewer for their time and the opportunity once you have finished the interview.
