Confirm the details
It may sound obvious, but double check the date and time of your interview, and make sure you know where to go.
Allow plenty of time to get to the location (factoring in things like traffic problems and train delays), but don’t head up for your meeting any earlier than ten minutes before your scheduled time.
Just as you would research the organisation, it is important to gather some background on the people who will be interviewing you.
In the age of LinkedIn, this is easier than ever. You don’t need to know their entire life story, but demonstrating that you’ve taken the time to find out about them will show you are prepared and will help you build rapport.
