The worst mistake you can have is to show up to an interview without being prepared. Be sure to do your research for both the position you hope to fill and the company itself.

Outlet stores and thrift shops have great bargains on suits and dress shirts. Be sure to select appropriate attire for the position and remember it is better to be overdressed than under dressed.
#3 Ask Questions

You must do something to stand out and be memorable to the employer. A great way to do this is to interact. Ask questions about the company, the position, and the manager themselves. If you can get to know them on a personal level and make a solid connection, chances are you will stick out when all they have in front of them is the list of applicants. Remember to ask well thought out questions, but be sure to avoid asking too many questions about compensation on the first interview.
Follow these three tips on your next interview, and chances are you will have a great job offer on the table.
