Step 01
Re-read the vacancy and research the role
Review the original listing and note the responsibilities, required skills and anything you want clarified. Research the organisation using its official website and public materials. Do not rely only on a message or an interviewer's claims to establish who the employer is.
Step 02
Prepare specific examples
Choose a few relevant examples from work, study or projects that show what you did, how you approached it and what you learned. Keep details accurate and avoid disclosing confidential information from a current or former employer.
- Practise explaining your role and decisions clearly.
- Use outcomes you can support; do not invent figures.
- Prepare an example of a challenge or learning experience.
Step 03
Prepare questions about the work
Ask about the role's priorities, team, reporting relationship, work location and next steps. For cross-border roles, ask through the verified employer contact how location eligibility and any required work authorisation are handled. Rules depend on official country information and the employer.
Step 04
Check interview logistics and privacy
Confirm the time zone, format, contact person and platform using trusted details. For a video interview, check your camera, microphone, connection and surroundings in advance, and use only the platform confirmed by the verified employer. For an in-person meeting, verify the location independently and tell someone you trust where you are going. Do not share passwords, one-time codes or payment details as part of an interview.
Step 05
After the conversation
Send a brief thank-you if appropriate, refer to any timeline the employer gave, and record the next step. A legitimate hiring process should not require an interview fee or payment to secure an offer. Verify unexpected requests through the employer's official channel.
Take the next step
Use the original source. Keep your own record.
