That s the list of don ts that we give to graduate interviewees. In a nutshell, be professional and be prepared.
Preparation means more than reading the recruitment brochure.
Make use of careers services, the Internet and libraries to find out about the organisation you are applying, and the sector it operates. Talk to trade associations or professional organisations or someone who is doing a similar job. Read the papers and relevant trade journals and watch the TV news - and not just the night before. But don t just read. Always expect to answer standard questions - why you want the job, why this organisation, and why they should want you.
