• Be polite and professional with everyone you encounter both before and after the interview. (Interviewers often get feedback from other staff).
• When you arrive, state clearly who you are and who you are there to see.
• Saying please and thank-you where appropriate doesn't cost you anything and often helps to give a good impression
• Be prepared to shake hands with a firm handshake on greeting and farewell.
• Smile as you do so and at other appropriate moments throughout the visit (this not only relaxes you but makes you appear relaxed and confident even when you are not).
• Don't sit down until you are asked to do so.
• Don't chew gum or smoke, even if invited to do so. It is also better not to smoke just before the interview because the smell will put some employers off
• If the interview is over a meal, don't drink alcohol.
• Make sure you remember the interviewer/s names.
• Avoid the temptation to be too informal even when the interviewer has a relaxed style.
• Don't waste people's time: make sure you are on time or preferably, 10 to 15 minutes early; try to answer questions succinctly, without rambling on; be prepared by practising questions and answers at home
• If you unavoidably have to change arrangements, give them as much notice as you can.
• If you are late, advise them if at all possible, apologise and try not to get flustered.
