3485785271_eb19121b90Earlier this week we posted Tips for updating your Resume.  Well of course you did! And now you’re updated and snazzy new resume has landed you the interview you’ve been hoping for. Now what?

Well now it’s time to prep for that interview to make sure you charm you’re way into that new job. What a way to start 2010, right? Take some time and review these steps for preparing for your next job interview.

  • Do your homework! Always make sure you read up on the company before you go in for the interview. It will give you a huge edge to be armed with knowledge about the company you’re applying for.  The beauty of Google is that you have a wealth of knowledge at your fingertips.
  • Dress for success. You’ve probably heard it before, but it’s always important to remember not to show up to an interview in jeans and a tennis shoes.
  • Attitude is everything. If you walk in confident with a positive attitude it will show and set the tone of the entire interview.
  • Ask questions. Nothing shows that you’re interested in the job more than asking questions about the company and the job you’re interviewing for.
  • Follow Up. Always, always, always send a follow up email, letter, or phone call after an interview. It can sometimes be the final act that will help you win the job over another candidate.

Good luck!
