These are 4 things I thought would be useful for other

interviewees to know

#1 Be Prepared

Digging through your desk the day of take-off to find your

resume isn’t a good idea

If the company asks for paperwork & stuff,

get it done...early!

If the company asks for paperwork & stuff,

get it done...early!

And early doesn’t mean a few hours before the plane leaves!

#2Bring stuff to eat!

OK, this might

I was starving!

So bring some source of energy...

otherwise you’ll end up eating a lot of these

Oh, and none of these

You cant afford to crash, you have to look good at

all times

#3

Pack light

Take only the absolute necessary...

You’ll get through security quicker and your head will hurt less

But bring something to keep you entertained on flights...

Books!

Some really good ones!

Tunes!

#4SLEEP!

If you’re prepared you wont be up all night before the interview

Last thing you want is to walk in looking like this...

If you’re prepared you wont be up all night before the interview

You’ll look better and like yourself a lot more

So catch some ZZZZzzzzzzz’s

Good luck with your interview!

Hope these pointers help!
