Be prepared

 The way you prepare for an interview is the first example that shows the interviewer how you’ll prepare for the 
 
 actual job. Read the trade papers and know what challenges are facing the employers and the industry at the 
 
 moment. Being pro-active in this crucial step will yield a large amount of benefits. Thanks to the internet, a 
 
 lot of basic information will be available at the company’s own Website. But don’t discount the value of talking 
 
 to people you may already know who work at the company. Try to get a feel, not only for the management style,   
 
 but also for the corporate culture.
