Simple Truths About Getting to the Interview and What to Take With You

Identifying your objective, setting your goal, and successfully navigating the twists and turns of your career path are all essential to achieving success. Hopefully by now you've researched the company, developed your success stories, lined up some killer references, and figured out what you should wear to your interview. Now it's time to think about the logistics of actually going to the interview. In this context, you literally need to know where you are going and how to get there. All of your planning could be for naught if you show up late or get lost because you were unsure of the route, or if you forget an important piece of information such as your reference sheet or professional portfolio. As with any successful endeavor, planning is key. This final phase of planning comes down to three important things: know where you're going and how long it will take to get there; remember what to take with you; and be prepared for the unexpected.
