Research
Show them you've done your research.
The company has already looked into you, so you need to spend time researching if this particular company is right for you.
Before you even apply for the job, vet the company. Dig through their website, read their blog, follow them on social media and see what interests you.
This will give you a feel for the company culture and how well you'll enjoy working there. It also lets you know what to highlight in your answers. If the company works closely with a charity you volunteer for, bring it up. Once the interviewer knows you've taken the time to look into the company, they'll see how serious you are about the job.
We've all had those interviews. You've done your research on the company. You have great answers lined up for the most frequently asked questions. You've even spent time looking at those really weird questions that interviewers love to throw at you to see how you deal with a curve ball. You're dressed for success. You're ready. Unfortunately, the interviewer really doesn't seem interested from the start.
According to Heather Huhman, writing for Glassdoor, even if you give stellar responses in an interview, an interviewer expects other things but never tells you. In this slideshow, we've highlighted Huhman's five insights that can help you during your next interview.
