Body language means attitude

Keep your head up and back straight.

Lean forward when seated.

You will look far more interested and enthusiastic.

And now for the questions…

Have answers ready for questions like…. Can you tell us something about yourself? What experience do you have that is

relevant for this position? What did you learn during your time at

university? What do you see as your strengths? And your weaknesses? What do you think about our website? What attracted you to the position?

Have answers ready for questions like…. How would your colleagues describe you? What sorts of projects did you work on in

your last position? What university did you attend and why did

you choose it? How do you typically approach new

projects? What do you know about our company? Where do you see yourself in five years’

time?

And have some questions of your own ready…

Why do people choose to stay in the company?

What are the company’s immediate plans for the future?

Who would be the internal clients of the department?
