If you are not ready for an interview, it is best to reschedule or decline altogether. Because when you have a serious attitude, you will definitely receive respect and appreciation from companies. Follow these steps to have an effective interview.
1. Learn carefully about the company/department applying for:

4. Practice interviews with friends

5. Save all important documents (Cover letter, recommendation letter, portfolio…) in a storage folder so that it is clean and easy to retrieve and give to the interviewer when needed.
6. On interview day:
– Choose professional attire (Pants/skirt + shirt/collared t-shirt…)
– Arrive 5 – 10 minutes early than scheduled
