6 golden rules for every interview

Nail these basics and you're already ahead of most candidates.

🔍

Research the company

Know their mission, products, recent news, and culture. Reference it in your answers.

📝

Practise out loud

Rehearse answers to common questions with a friend or record yourself — reading notes is not enough.

Use the STAR method

Structure behavioural answers: Situation, Task, Action, Result. Keep each story under 2 minutes.

Prepare your own questions

Ask 2–3 thoughtful questions at the end. It signals genuine interest and helps you evaluate the role.

👔

Dress one level up

When in doubt, dress slightly smarter than the company's day-to-day dress code.

Arrive early, not on time

Aim to arrive 10 minutes early. Use the extra time to observe the office culture and settle your nerves.
