Interviews can be challenging, but the right preparation makes all the difference. In this video, Breann, Senior Recruiter at Akkodis, joins our expert recruiting team to share top interview tips—covering preparation, presentation, and confident communication to help you land your next role.
Prepare for Interview Success: Research the Company Before You Meet
Preparation is the foundation of every successful interview. Rachael emphasizes that researching the company—its mission, recent projects, and values—before meeting the hiring manager shows initiative, professionalism, and genuine interest. Understanding the organization helps you tailor your answers and stand out as a well-prepared candidate. “Understand their values, any recent projects they’ve had going on, and be ready to speak well to the role at hand.”
Master Interview Punctuality: Why Arriving Early Matters
Stephanie highlights that punctuality is one of the simplest yet most powerful ways to make a great first impression in an interview. Arriving early shows respect for the interviewer’s time, demonstrates professionalism, and immediately signals reliability—qualities every employer values.“To be on time is to be late. To be early is on time.”
Ask Smart Questions to Stand Out in Your Interview
Want to make a lasting impression in your next interview? Be proactive. Kori recommends preparing thoughtful, well-researched questions that demonstrate curiosity, engagement, and a genuine interest in the company and role. Strong questions show recruiters that you’ve done your homework and are invested in finding the right fit.
Showcase Your Career Story with Measurable Impact
Kelsey encourages candidates to bring their career story to life by connecting their experiences to measurable results. Highlighting specific achievements—what you built, improved, or delivered—helps recruiters clearly see the value you can bring to their organization.
Master the Art of Communication in Your Interview
Cliff offers a valuable reminder that successful interviews are a two-way conversation—not a monologue. Active listening, thoughtful responses, and authentic dialogue help you connect better with recruiters and demonstrate strong communication skills that employers value.“Two ears, one mouth. Use them in that proportion.”
