A call Prior to the Interview Works Magic!

You have done your Research, Preparation and you have a  new interview outfit now you are ready for the interview or are you? 

A very good tip prior to your interview would be to call the company the day before and to check that all is ok and if there is anything they would like you to bring.

 

Interestingly this has just reminded me what I used to say to candidates before an interview, and that was to get the candidate to call the company and ask them if they could send you some company information. These days this isn't necessary with most companies having a brochure on the web, but the effect off calling the client before the interview will have a very positive effect.

 

Just to cover the logic on this, by calling the Manager or the HR person prior to the interview will create an early relationship with that person, and as a result the company will remember this on the day. The effect will be when the interviewer finally gets to meet you; you will get a more positive welcome, compared to the other candidates because a relationship has already been made. So again you will have an edge.
