Research the company beforehand

By researching the company, you will get a better idea of the company’s values, missions, and culture. It will show you if you would be a good fit for the company, but will also, show them that you are prepared, professional, and interested in the position.

Make sure to be honest and authentic

You will build trust with the interviewer, as you will be creating a positive impression and increasing your chances of being hired. Being truthful and genuine demonstrates that you have a strong sense of integrity, which is an important quality many employers look for.

Try and keep it natural

When you are comfortable and speaking naturally, you are more likely to appear confident and self-assured. If you are trying to sound like someone you’re not or putting on an act, it can be stressful and exhausting. By being natural, you will reduce stress and feel more relaxed during the interview.

When possible, give STAR answers

Remember that an interview goes two ways
