The interview is a very important part of the job search process. It is, however, only part of the process. The first step of the interview is to prepare for the interview. The key to a successful interview is advance preparation. Solidifying yourself as the best candidate comes after the interview. This interview planner covers the three stages of a successful interview –before, during and after.

Before the Interview

Create a job “shopping list.”

Determine what would be the ideal job. This should be your wish list of your expectations. Don't sell yourself short or reduce your expectations to fit a particular job.

Prepare your interview portfolio- include current company literature, current job description (if similar), personal compensation history, extra resumes, references (peers, employers, subordinates, clients, vendors, etc), actual letters of reference, performance appraisals, memos/letters confirming achievements, college or continuing education transcripts, articles written by or about you, text of speeches you have given, non-proprietary designs, drawings and reports you have developed, press releases detailing awards you have won, testimonials about you.

Prepare a list of questions to ask the interviewer. Study these carefully and prepare your answers accordingly. They interviewer WILL ask if you have any questions. Make them good ones. Allow your questions to give them more insight into your fit for the job.

Prepare a list of questions you expect the interviewer to ask you.

Have a friend do a dry run interview. Test your answers. Sit still and think give answers that present you best. If there are any questionable areas in your background, you need to be well prepared to answer these confidently and with conviction. Do not be defensive.

Purchase correspondence stationery and thank you notes. Have these ready to go for the post interview stage.

Identify your basic interview wardrobe and select an outfit (and back up) that is considered fairly conservative for your field. Consider your accessories carefully, no flashy jewelry or outlandish ties. It’s always better to err on the conservative side.

Polish your shoes. Get the heels replaced if necessary. Make sure to wear appropriate business shoes. If expected to visit the plant or manufacturing facilities, check on the shoe regulations and bring and extra pair. This also helps you to look well prepared and efficient.

Get a manicure and haircut.

Call the assistant or secretary to confirm your appointment.

Confirm the address and directions. Know where you are going in advance. If you are unfamiliar with the location, consider a dry run (especially if its during peak traffic times.)
