Ten top tips to succeed in interviews By Gautam Godhwani, Co-founder and CEO of SimplyHired. co.uk


Interviews are daunting


for everyone, but they are often very difficult for new graduates. Many have never experienced the interview process before, and with thousands of students graduating into a tough economy each year, the job search market for recent graduates remains extremely competitive. Here are 10 tips to ensure your next interview is a success!


Prepare. Preparation is key, so do as much research as possible prior to your interview. An interviewer wants to know not only what you can bring to their company, but also why you want the job. If you don’t know anything about the company or job field, you may as well head home. Social media is a great place to begin research: visit the company Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter pages to find out what they do and value, and use that knowledge to your advantage in the interview.
