It doesn’t matter whether you are going to have the classic variant of interview, telephone or may be Skype, but you should always be informed about that company/organization beforehand, because that information may be just the exact answer to the employer’s questions or may complete while representing yourself.
So what you should find out about the company/organization, which will help you to have a perfect interview and become the best candidate for the job position in 99%.
- When was the company/organization established?
- Was there an interflow or name change of that organisation/company?
- What exactly does the company produces, sells or what kind of service does it have?
- What size does the company have (big or small) or how many employees does it have?
- Who are the main clients or who are the competitors of that company?
- Which is the goal and the mission of the company/organisation?
- What position does it have in market?
- What kind of success did the company have in the past?
- Have there been any ups and downs lately?
To many of these questions you can find searching in the internet or just visiting the page of the company/organization.
The colleagues of the HR Agency “ACCEPT” advice not to forget that during the interview you can and should also ask questions to the employer. With this method you can show awareness in the history and the affairs, which will certainly impress the interview taker/employer. Tell them an important fact about the organization or the company then ask a question. Of course it will be better to prepare those questions beforehand.
