If you are in the market for a new job and are lucky enough to get invited to an interview then remember to research the business and the market it operates within before you go. Whilst no potential employer is looking for candidates to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of their business it will look like you are not interested if you don’t know anything at all. Visit the company’s website, download and read any annual reports and visit their competitor’s websites to get a better understanding of the marketplace. If possible, try to think of some relevant questions about the business that you can ask during the interview. Just a short time preparing can be hugely beneficial when you are in the hot seat and might just be enough to get you the job!
