To avoid missing out on a good job opportunity, there are things you need to watch for before you sit for an interview.

Jayne Mattson, who is the senior vice president of Keystone Associates, has revealed that the millennials are not re-evaluating their interviews, and they should always research well on the company, Mashable.com reported.

He said that job seekers must visit the company website and research the products, mission statement and find out about their competition.

Mattson said that doing a Google search on the people one is supposed to meet, helps in developing a quick rapport.

Interviewee should always make sure that he/she has prepared the answers according to anticipated questions based on the job qualifications.

Mattson said that not re-evaluating the interview before following up is a mistake most people commit, and they should always take at least 24-36 hours to think about how the interview went, so that selling oneself in the follow up correspondence becomes easier.
