The Interview: What to Bring
Okay, you’ve scored the interview. What do you bring?
Here is what we suggest to clients on what to bring to an interview:
1. Hard copies (3-4) of your resume in a folder or an envelope.
2. A hard copy list of references.
3. Paper & Pen (to take notes)
4. Questions
a. What are you looking for in a candidate? / What are the responsibilities of this position?
b. What is the duration of the project?
c. Who else will you be working with? / How big is the team?
d. It IS okay to ask about rate/pay.
Other tips:
Arrive to the interview no more than 10-15 minutes early. (Remember “Early is on time, on time is late” – but don’t be too early.) Dress sharp casual, but not too comfortable or sloppy.
*Bonus tip from Jax: Wearing a watch to your interview shows you value the importance of time. (Deep, right?)
Blue Revised also offers resume consulting if you need to brush up on your interview skills.
