  • A lot of individuals are nervous before an interview and that’s perfectly normal. We encourage you to step away from any distractions so that you may fully engage in the interview. Be confident, be yourself and smile over the phone!
  • Familiarize yourself with our website, mission, and culture.
  • Review the job description about the specific job(s) you are applying for.
  • Look professional, feel professional, and be professional; even over the phone.
