Doing Your Homework Before an Interview

Ready for your next job interview? You’ve done your research, right?

I assume you’re on it! But just in case, here are the 3 things you really must research before you step or Zoom into an interview…

1 Who is interviewing you — whether it’s one person or multiple people, try to get their names in advance so you can at least check out their LinkedIn profiles and get a sense of them on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or other social media.

2 Company leadership — even if you’re not being interviewed by the founder or anyone in the C-suite, know who they are and their origin story (to the extent you are able).

3 Who are the clients or customers — already being tuned into the business is gold-star worthy in an interview. Especially if you’ve discovered some commonalities in companies or direct relationships.

Working with a recruiter is a great way to get the Cliff Notes on a company before you head into the interview. When recruiters set up an interview, we try to get all the information on who will be conducting the interview and what you need to know to be prepared.
