Job interviews can be nerve-racking. To increase your chances of succeeding in interviews, you must think ahead. Research the company, read some of its recent press releases, and learn some of its goals and target projects.

If you can find something in the company that resonates with your skills, raise this topic in your interview. In addition, look at the company’s management to identify commonalities with them, and touch on these in the interview or speak to how the company’s mission statement aligns with your values.

Be concise in your statements. Answer questions directly without being vague or digressing from the core issues. Many interviews are timed, so you should be aware of the limited time you have to make your case. Self-awareness and emotional intelligence are advantages in interviews.
