Here in is a guide to preparing for an interview by Christine Reidhead.

Know their operations so that you know how to respond when asked if you feel you can fit there according to the job description. If it is merchandise that operates in other countries, focus on what they do in your location. All these preparations should start long before the date of the interview.

Most examiners will ask several typical questions to gauge how well you know yourself. They might seem like walk over subjects, but failure to familiarize yourself with them can be disastrous. Note down some of the common questions and the preferred answers. If you fumble when answering these questions, a serious employer will doubt your credentials.

Make your selling point very clear and articulate. Be ready to explain to them and use the right tone when describing yourself. Your words should be brought out correctly and do not make the interviewer keep on asking you to repeat yourself. Also, make the answers as short as possible and then give appropriate examples.
