How do you start an open interview?

Of course, you can do some preparation to make your open interview more successful. These tips can help:

• Researching the company is a great first step

• Reread the job posting to see exactly what they want

• Create a list of questions you have about the position

• Update your resume to be accurate

• Collect a list of references and have their information on hand

• Practice interviewing with a friend or family member so it feels more natural

• Research interview questions and pre-plan some of your answers

• Dress nicely and be well-groomed at the interview

• Bring any supplemental information you might need

Once you're in the open interview, you will be led through the process, so you won't have to worry too much about what's happening. If you have questions, go ahead and ask them. Most companies have a person or two who are at open interviews just to answer questions and tell people what to do.
