A resume can be a great window in observing a candidates past experiences, and a detailed description of how and why they think they are perfect for the job role, BUT an interview is where the employer can really view you as a person, your personality traits and characteristics. You can sound like the perfect employee on paper, but if you head into an interview unprepared and unconfident, you could lose the opportunity altogether.
Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.
Preparation is your best friend, and here we have concluded the 10 best websites that will help you to become fully equipped and confident walking into the interview room to meet your (hopefully) future employer.
