Find a current job posting that interests you and one you feel you are qualified for on the web, newspaper, etc.
Research the company and its interview process. Research what kind of interview process this company uses. For example, in the job listing, they may have stated "pre-employment drug screening" or "aptitude testing conducted on all applicants." In addition, you should look for clues about the company's interview process. You can find this information in any of their job postings. Read several listings and note the common language. You might find that this company offers job shadowing, behavior-based questioning (Quintessential Careers, n.d.), or group interviews. This is great information to glean from your research.
Submit a summary detailing your expectations for a specific job interview that includes:
- Your company research
- Explain why you feel you are qualified for the job

- Five questions you would ask
