Tips

  • Dress for success – particularly in the UK where image is everything
  • Smile at your job interviews, it builds rapport very quickly
  • Make sure your CV is written in the third person eg. no I or me
  • Always allow an extra 20 minutes for getting to your interview - transport happens
  • Give a firm hand shake and make eye contact with your interviewer
