          Preparing for an Interview<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          Refresh your memory on some of the Interview Strategies that can assist you in the process of obtaining a job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          Before the Interview<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • Research the Department:\u00a0<\/strong>Learn as much as you can about the department (e.g. department\u2019s mandate\/mission, organizational structure etc.) so that you have a better sense of what the interviewer expects and you can more readily demonstrate that you are a good fit for the department.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Study the Job Description:\u00a0<\/strong>Look very closely at the required skills, this will provide clues to what questions the interviewer(s) might ask.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Anticipate and Practice Interview Questions:\u00a0<\/strong>Develop your own interview questions based on what you anticipate the interviewer(s) might ask. Be sure to practice your responses to these questions. When preparing answers to interview questions, write them down in point form and remember to provide a validating experience or example to demonstrate how you gained a particular skill, experience or knowledge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Plan Questions to ask the Employer: \u00a0<\/strong>These questions demonstrate that you have done your research, understand the full scope of the job and are enthusiastic about the job.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Know the Details:\u00a0<\/strong>Verify the location and time of the interview. Don\u2019t forget to take into account situations that are out of your control such as traffic, buses being late, the weather and last minute changes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Prepare your Clothing:\u00a0<\/strong>Have your outfit chosen and ironed the night before your interview. Also pack the items you plan on taking with you (e.g. C.V., resume, list of references, portfolios etc.).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            During the Interview \/ The Day of the Interview<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            • Be Punctual<\/strong>: It\u2019s best to be at least 5 minutes early for your interview. The preparation that you do in advance will help you to be on time. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Maintain a Professional Image<\/strong>: \u00a0If your personal appearance and hygiene are poor, the employer(s) might assume that the quality of your work is also poor. It is therefore important that you plan how you will look as carefully as you plan what to say. Don\u2019t forget to wear clean and polished conservative dress shoes, a conservative suit, have well-groomed hair and wear minimal cologne or perfume.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Non-Verbal Communication:\u00a0<\/strong>What you say is as important as how it\u2019s said since as much as 90% of communication is non-verbal.\u00a0 Try to remember the fundamentals: sit up straight, make eye contact, have a nice firm handshake, and remember to smile. Remember to do this for everyone in the office.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Interviewers are Friendly but they are not Your Friends:\u00a0<\/strong>Remember to maintain professional dialogue with interviewers at all times. Don\u2019t say anything that might call into question your professional judgment. Even in situations where the interviewer is really relaxed and informal, don\u2019t forget to maintain professional dialogue. Consider the following quotation from Dorothy Neville, \u201cThe real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing in the right place, but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Use Examples:\u00a0<\/strong>During the interview, use specific examples. In using these examples, divide your responses to questions into 3 parts: Situation, Action, and Result.\n
                \n
              • Situation -Tell the interviewer about the situation and what problem you were trying to solve.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Action \u2013 Explain to the employer what you did to achieve your results (highlight your skills).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Result -Tell the interviewer what was the final outcome<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                After the Interview<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                • Evaluate Yourself:\u00a0<\/strong>Immediately following the interview, evaluate what went well and what could be done to improve. Write notes on what questions were asked and evaluate the content of your responses. In the event that you don\u2019t secure the position, you will be sufficiently prepared for your next interview.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
