Arrive at Your Interview Prepared

Many times you have several versions of your resume.  Make sure you take copies of the same resume you originally sent to them to your interview. Bring copies for everyone involved in the interviewing process. Always bring one or two extra copies of your resume. Never assume they have the copy you originally sent. You want to provide each person in the interview a folder containing this information. Print your name and contact information on the tab of your folders.  This will position you above the candidates who do not bring their resume to their interview.
In addition you will want to bring:

• List of references (3 past supervisors, 1 personal)
• The list should include their work and home phone numbers, cell phone if available and email address.
• Reference letters (if you have them)
• Performance reviews (if they are stellar)
• Grade transcript (if you are a recent student)
• Writing sample (if written communication skills are a requirement of the position)
• Portfolio (if the position is "creative")

When you are inquiring about the next step in the process, you take out your planner and write down the date or enter it in your calendar on your phone which is set on mute. This will impress the interviewer and they may note that you are organized.
