If you're applying for an accountancy job, you must be prepared for the interview to make a good impression on the employer. You must avoid common mistakes that can hurt your chances of getting the job. Here are the most common mistakes to avoid: Not preparing for the interview: Research the company and job description and prepare answers to interview questions. Understand the company culture, vision, and values. Dressing inappropriately: Dress professionally, even for video interviews, to show that you are taking the interview seriously. Talking about the wrong things: Avoid discussing salary or criticising former employers or colleagues. Focus on why you are the right fit for the job. Being late: Plan your route and arrive early or on time. If you are taking a video interview, check your software and hardware in advance. Poor body language: Sit up straight, maintain eye contact, and don't check your phone during the interview. Practice with friends to improve your body language. Not listening properly: Pay attention and stay engaged throughout the interview. Ask questions if you need clarification, but don't ask your hiring manager to repeat themselves constantly.
