Top tips for a job interview in the blockchain industry
Interview Tips
- Do your homework and go into the interview prepared.
- Dress smart.
- Be interested.
- Prepare good questions to ask at the end (5-10 is a good indicator that you’re serious and you’ve done your homework).
- Don’t ask about 'money' or 'holiday' straight off the bat – ask the recruitment agent later or at second interview (if you get one).
- Don’t ask for more money straight away.
- Take notes.
- Go in with a can-do attitude (what I can do for you, not what can this boat do for me?).
- Be prepared for the “no time off for family functions” eventuality.
- Go in with the knowledge about the company or opportunity.
- Show you are career minded and want to commit for the long term.
- Find out about the culture of the department you will be joining.
- Ask about the role’s longevity in the department.
- Suggest you’d be available for a trial to show your work ethic and capability.
- Be honest, friendly, positive and put your best foot forward.
Good luck!
