There are many different things you can do to help you land the job you want. One of the first things to do is to go over this list of items and read it closely to give yourself a good chance of landing the job. If you take all of these items to heart, you will really have a greater advantage when you hit the job market.
The first thing to do is research the company you are applying with. What we mean by this is to find out how long they have been in business, what products to they sell, how many employees do they have, what was the most recent press release, and in short find out the overall scope of the business and what it entails.
The way you dress is also very important. Too many people who are interviewing for a job just wear a suit. While a suit looks nice, it can cost you the job. What we mean is that if you are applying to be a fork lift operator and apply with a suit on, you will stick out like a soar thumb. Dress the part and look like you fit in already when you get to the interview. The last thing you want is for people to remember the guy who didn't fit in when you leave your interview.
When interviewing it is important to match your interviewer. If the interviewer is on the edge of their seat, do the same. The interviewer has their hands in their lap, do the same thing. We are not talking about playing simon says, but we are talking about connecting with your interviewer in ways that they won't even think about but will make them feel more comfortable.
The last thing to do when trying to land that dream job, is to bring examples of work that you have done that apply to the industry. If you are going into graphic design, bring tons of stuff to show your future employer. On top of bringing in things, post it all to a website that your interviewer can go back to after you are gone. - 31896
