Prospective Employer Interview


  • Keep all of the points within Interview Tips in mind.
  • Don’t initiate discussion about remuneration at the first interview, however, certainly be open and honest if the interviewer asks.

Be positive

  • Don’t make disparaging remarks about colleagues, past or present employers. It is unprofessional and you don’t know if your interviewer knows the person/company you are talking about!

Ask for the Job

  • If you are genuinely interested, say so! Enthusiasm and a clear desire to work for the prospective employer could be the difference between you and another candidate – with similar skills and background – making the shortlist.

Adieu

  • Leave your prospective employer with a positive impression.
  • When the interview is wrapping up, make a few concise comments to recap some of the highlights of the conversation.
  • Also, reiterate your strengths that are important to success within in the role.
  • You will generally be escorted to the reception area at the end of the interview. Don’t relax just yet. Smile, make eye contact and give a firm handshake. Thank them (by name) for their time.
