Read the job description thoroughly.

Read the Company History.

Google Articles, and Google the interviewer to see if there are articles on them, come prepared to mention what you read to prove you did your homework on Company research. Bring the Articles, in fact, put them in the Binder\Folder I mention below.

Google LinkedIn the C-Level and do the same.

Read company history on the website.

The interview itself;

Always dress like you are meeting the most important person in the world. First crisp and clean professional impressions cannot be undervalued.

Take a notepad.

Write on it somewhere in secret, don't talk too much. Listening is more important than talking. This very important!

Write on it 10 intelligent questions, start this now, it's not as easy as you think, and add and change question until you got an intelligent 10 on there. The goal is 10.

Don't jump to ask those question, write more question to ask later as you are being interviewed, don't jump to ask the questions as they speak, write them down, some of the questions are answered in the interview.

When the interviewer is done, then you ask your questions. Maybe some of those questions were answered during the interview so you don't have to ask them anymore. Maybe new ones came about that you wrote down. Now is the time to find out.

This is not the time to ask about pay, benefits, HR related questions, PTO, insurance. The hiring manager cares about the filling the position, you should care about what the position is and what you will be doing and for who, and finding out about the company. Your recruiter can get you HR information upfront or at the end. Most of those things are standard anyway, and you don't want to come across caring more about vacation than work.

The main idea behind the questions, writing them down, is so that you have something to talk about when it goes silent, and sometimes it does, and you don't want an awkward interview, that is the last thing you want.

Of course, it also makes you look smart and detailed. Yes, You also want to look smart, but this is your time get information too. One of the worst things you can do in life is waste your precious time on earth, make your career look bad by job hopping, and take a job purely for income, there has to be an understanding of what you do, for who, and a cultural mix. Find out now.

Make sure the questions are very intelligent, processes, reports, conflict resolution.

Make 3-4 good looking binders or folders.

Put 3-4 copies of your resume in there.

Put awards, praises, references, clients lists, short stories of strategic accomplishments and problem-solving, graphs, those are great! from there, in the binder\folder.

Make lists up you can put in there, example, list of clients you did RFP's for, competitors you want to ask about how they impact the company or are similar, things you can do that you know will improve the workflow that you have done before. Ideas!

Put anything else you can think of.

Offer to leave a copy of the binder \ folder, as many as he likes for the interviewer.

This binder idea is super key, so make sure it looks fantastic, and no one does it, you will stand out, and there could be a very good chance you will be referred to as the one who Ace's it as setting an example, and your folder will get passed around, hence the idea of a few folders to make and leave.

Offer to go over what is in it! Duh! Page by Page, QUICKLY!!!! and then just leave it for them.

Hope this helps! You're going to nail it!
