How to interview well with Ten2Two
If you’re thinking of changing job or about a return to work after a break you’ll need to brush up on your interview skills. Ten2Two specialises in flexible working recruitment and they work with mums (and dads!) to help them find rewarding, flexible, office based roles that allow time for family as well as a career. And they understand that an upcoming interview can be daunting if you haven’t had one in a while.
- Research the company; find out everything you can about the company, its recent performance & latest news.
- Review the job description. The interviewer is likely to ask you for examples linked to the role. Think of examples from your previous jobs in advance.
- Know your skills; read and re-read your CV and be prepared to talk about what skills and benefits you can bring.
- Be clear about why you want to do the job. Think what you’re going to say when the interviewer asks ‘why do you want this job?’
- Prepare questions for the interviewer; know what you’re going to wear; know when and where the interview is and allow plenty of time.
- Relax and be yourself. You want to come across as interested, engaging, capable and professional.
And remember, an interview is a two-way process for you and the employer to decide if together you’re a match. It’s a great opportunity to showcase your skills and personality and, with preparation, can actually be enjoyable!
