Top 5 Interview Tips

Use Stories
People remember and relate to them, so make it easy for the interviewer to understand your experiences. Tell about your work according to the situation, what you did, and the result.  
​​​​​​​Review your resume highlights and identify great accomplishments that relate to the job description.
Build Rapport
The best interviews are an exchange of information. Develop a dialogue with your interviewer to better understanding the perspective of the job within the context of the company’s mission, products and services, and goals.
Convey Your Value
Make the connection for how your background and experience will benefit the company and create value. Find ways to incorporate in your answers how you’re qualified based on your prior education and experiences.
Connect with the Interviewer
Continuously watch for visual or other clues that what you’re saying is connecting with the interviewer. If attention appears to be fading, wrap up your answer or pause and ask if you can provide alternative information.
