Typically, in a hiring process, the person looking for a job has taken their time and is pretty much ready to go to various job interviews. However, certain situations can lead to interviews sooner than expected. A position becomes available in the company's hierarchy, a company calls you back more quickly to arrange a meeting at short notice, and so on. So you need to be prepared for these eventualities.
This hiring coach offers a number of tips to help you prepare for this eventuality. If this happens, you need to prepare your answer to the famous question where the recruiter asks you to talk about yourself. This is the time to make a good impression, and to give 3-5 minutes of relevant experience. To achieve this, first list your successes and then find concrete anecdotes where your skills and behavior have helped in previous experiences. It's also important to prepare questions to ask the recruiter at the end of the interview. Asserting that everything has been understood will be frowned upon, as if the person had no interest in the job in question.
That's why it's so important to research the company in advance, even if you have less than a day. By searching the website, social networks such as LinkedIn or even the company's news on search engines, it will then be possible to find points to emphasize in the discussion.
Finally, it's important to prepare your clothes and, if the interview is to take place online, your set-up as well, firstly by checking that the technological solution you've chosen runs smoothly and that the decor is appropriate, doesn't put the person in backlight, etc. Then you'll just have to use the camera, which you'll need for the interview. All that's left to do is to use the relaxation techniques that work for you, so that you can relax before the fateful hour.
