Job descriptions can serve as helpful guidelines for interview preparation by providing a preview of the type of questions a candidate may need to field during an interview. Applicants can demonstrate their suitability for a position by referring to their expertise in the skills mentioned in the job description. They can practice talking about their past experiences handling similar tasks or projects.

Further, many job descriptions categorize skills or competencies as either required or supplementary. If the candidate does not possess some of the nonessential skills, they should be prepared to discuss how they plan to improve their proficiency in this area. After researching the company and the role, applicants can use information missing from the job description to brainstorm thoughtful questions to ask in the interview.
