An interview can be fairly daunting, especially when you are up against hundreds of other applicants. Know the secret to setting yourself apart from the group, and be the one that everybody wants.
Be smart in an interview. Prepare a research portfolio prior to the interview including your knowledge about the company and the role you are applying for.
Think in an interview – what is unique about you that you can bring to a company? What can you do for them that will set you apart and benefit the company further than just the role you are applying for.
However just saying that you have an open personality that can get along with everyone will not secure you the position.
Think creatively. Read BRW and other material relating to the business realm and take what is in the latest news and what you have read what companies are looking for at the moment.
For example: The latest BRW newsletter features an article about search engine optimization and how every company wants to be on the first page of Google.
Do your research! Find out what kind of things Google favours (this is easy look it up on youtube) so you have the ability to do it for a company if need be.
The next step is just to SELL! SELL, SELL, SELL yourself! Let the company know that you have the ability to get them on the first page of Google.
This is what is going to set you apart from everyone that brings their same personable skills to any interview.
GOOD LUCK!
