1. Informational Interview:
An informational interview is your opportunity to know more about the company, specific job, industry or a specific person by interacting with the professional in the field. It also helps you to develop a relationship with a professional in the industry, and expand your network and possibly garner a job interview in the near future.
Be well prepared and approach an informational interview as usual. Carry out some research about the organization prior to the interview process and come up with a list of discussion points and questions to help things run smoothly. If necessary take some notes during the interview and exchange business cards to keep in touch. But be wary and don’t be aggressive about landing a job.
