Your chance to build connections

An interview is usually your first chance to meet with a new employer directly. People often feel uncomfortable about the idea of an interview being a "sales pitch" - this is completely normal!

A successful interview isn't just about getting an offer - it's also about making sure that the company and the role are the right fit for you too.

Remember, you've been selected because the employer wants to get to know you better.

What they've seen so far has told them that you may have the right skills, experience, behaviour or potential (or all of these!) to do the job. So your interview is all about building connections, and showcasing what makes you great.
