Interviewing Tips

Research the company that you are interviewing with beforehand. Find out as much information as you can. During the interview, ask relevant questions about the company or the position for which you are applying. The interviewer is usually impressed by someone that has done their homework. It shows that you are genuinely interested in the company.
 

During your interview, talk about any relevant accounting experience that you have gained through a part-time position or possibly an accounting internship.
 

Be able to discuss your strengths and weaknesses. Most likely, the interviewer is considering several applicants and it is important to be able to "sell" yourself. Be honest and sincere in your answers.
 

Bring along a copy of your resume or data sheet as well as any other relevant information such as letters of recommendations from employers/college professors.
 

Ensure that you arrive in plenty of time for your interview; however, try not to make the mistake of arriving too early. A good time frame would be 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment.
 

Last, but not least, try to relax and enjoy yourself.
