Learn about the company onlineDo some fast research, which will give you something to talk about
in addition to the job description. Go to the employer's website, or Google information such as:
How big is the company in terms of annual sales or employees?What does the company say about its products or services?What recent news (such as a new product, a press release, an
interview with the CEO) can you discuss? If the company is public, the boilerplate at the bottom of its press
releases will tell you a lot.

Plan what to wear.Go neutral. Conservative business attire, such as a
neutral-colored suit and professional shoes, is best.Err formal. If instructed to dress “business casual,” use
good judgment.Plug in that iron. Make sure your clothes are neat and
wrinkle-free.Dress to impress. Be sure that your overall appearance
is neat and clean.

Follow up.Many interviews end with “Do you have any questions?”
Bring a list. You may say, “In preparing for today's meeting, I took some time to jot down a few questions. Please allow me to review my notes.”
Be strategic. Cover information not discussed or clarify a previous topic — do not ask for information that can be found on the organization’s website.
In your opinion, what makes this organization a great place to work? What do you consider the most important criteria for success in this job? Tell me about the organization’s culture. How will my performance be evaluated? What are the opportunities for advancement? What are the next steps in the hiring process?
