You should know some information about the company culture and hiring practices before you go in. If possible, learn examples from employees about the type of person that fits in well, so you can explain what a good match you will be.  Use the internet to find out information. You may be able to find past employees to talk to through social media. Check the company's social media and financial reports.  Look over the company's website to find out what they value; a great place to look for value's is in the company's mission statement.  Also, look at recent news to find out what the company has been up to recently. Several days ahead of time, take a good look at the job description. Use a another piece of paper to break the description down into groups.  Break it down into a list of skills and experience the company wants. Match up your own skills with each of those on the list. It may be difficult to decipher what exactly the company wants from an employee because the company uses obscure language. You need to learn to read between lines. For instance, "dynamic" generally means someone who can tackle problems and project with confidence, while "self-starter" means someone who is able to take initiative when something needs to be done. A "team player" is someone who can work well with a wide variety of people. If possible, divide it into two categories of "required" and "nice to have." Put most of your attention on "nice to have," since if you get the interview, you likely have the required skills. Write out a detailed response next to each qualification the employer is asking for in the job description. Remember that you must describe why you are the solution to the employer’s problems.   For example, if the job description lists managing a small team as necessary experience, list out the positions you’ve held and any achievements that you’ve earned. Use any relevant experience, including jobs outside the industry. For instance, if you worked in fast-food restaurant in college and managed other people, that shows relevant experience. You can also mention experience that wasn't for a paid position, especially if you hadn't had many jobs. For instance, running a club on campus or even acting as coach for an intramural sports team also counts as management experience. Once you've matched up your skills to the job description, choose the top 3 or 4 to focus on when you're giving your answer. You don't want your answer to be all over the place, so pick the ones where you experience best matches the most important parts of the job description. Try giving an answer in front of the mirror. Next, move up to a family member or friend. Just run through it a couple of times so you remember the main ideas. You don't want your answer to sound rehearsed, but the main ideas should be thoroughly committed to your memory.
