To prepare for a job interview, the following actions are recommended:
-
Research yourself. - Understand your skills, experiences, and accomplishments so you can effectively communicate them during the interview.
-
Research the organization, position, and industry. - Familiarize yourself with the company's mission, values, recent news, and the specific role you're applying for.
-
Research the interviewer. - If possible, look up the interviewer’s background, their role within the company, and their professional interests.
-
Prepare questions to ask the interviewer. - Think of insightful questions that show your interest in the role and the company.
While looking sharp for an interview is important, it may not be necessary to buy a completely new suit or shoes unless you don't already have suitable attire. So, the following item may be considered less essential:
- Get a haircut, buy a new suit, and new pair of shoes.
In summary, the actions you should definitely take are the first four options: researching yourself, the organization, the interviewer, and preparing questions to ask.
