Preparation is often the difference between a good interview and a great one. Working with a recruiter gives you instant insight into the role and the company, but your own research is just as important.
Understand the company
Look at their website, press releases and social channels. What are they talking about? What challenges are they tackling? You do not need to know everything, but you should understand their purpose and direction.
Know the role
Study the job description and link it to your experience. Think about examples that show you can handle the problems they want solved. Your recruiter can help you identify what truly matters.
Research the interviewers
Check their LinkedIn profiles. Their background, interests or recent posts might help you build rapport or tailor your examples.
Prepare your questions
Good questions show confidence, curiosity and engagement. Ask about team objectives, current priorities, challenges and what success looks like in the first months.
Sort out the logistics
Confirm the format, time, location or virtual platform. Stress-free basics help you focus on performing well.
Strong preparation signals enthusiasm, professionalism and genuine interest. When you combine your research with the insight of a specialist recruiter, you walk into every interview ready to impress.
