Ace the big face to face
BRUSHING up on your interview skills is always a good idea.
Here, DEE CLARKE of Amazon Campus Recruitment shares her top tips to impress at your big opportunity.
- Think broadly about all the types of jobs available and what would most suit you, including what makes you tick.
- Speak to former staff to get an idea of life at the firms you apply to.
- Think about what you really want from your career. Do you want to get a big brand on your CV? Are you looking for a laid-back or fast-paced culture? An informal environment or something more structured?
- Get a full understanding of what companies you apply to actually do. Ask what the day-to-day work involves so you can match the role to your own skills.
- Most companies will have a checklist of qualities and core skills they want in applicants. If you can find out what they are looking for in advance, you can tailor your application to give you the best chance of success.
