Any interview tips? - Khamul - Feb 18, 2019
Hello everyone. I've got an assesment centre tomorrow, which involves a 1 on 1 discussion (which I have to lead), 2 interviews (HR and Technical) and some group stuff. It's for a graduate job that I'm pretty keen on getting and any last minute advice is appreciated! I've prepared fairly well so I should be OK but I'm obviously still nervous, only done one of these before for a placement a few years ago.
I know not all of you have gone down the route of getting a 'normal' job but it would be great to hear from anyone with interview experience and especially anyone who's ever had a technical (software engineering) interview!
Thanks guys!

1. Learn facts about the company. For example, Lowes has been operating since 1967.
2. Casual buisness attire - youll stand out among the rest.
3. Don't talk too much - based off a survey it's good to share a 50/50 conversation.
4. Don't sound too generic and scripted.
5. Look the interviewer in the eyes.
I wish you the best of luck pursing the job please keep us updated.
