Interview Guide
So you’ve landed the big interview. Congratulations, you can demonstrate your skills, knowledge, and passion to become part of a team of creative and talented artisans.
As a courtesy to all job candidates, we have provided this guide for interview preparation. Please read everything and use the advice provided to help your interview succeed.
What should I bring?
Your interviewers love seeing examples of work you have done. Please prepare a portfolio with a diverse collection of your work or samples. Even if you are a coder, it is possible to have a portfolio of project source code.
When showing off portfolio items during the interview, please be prepared to answer questions about your motivation, idea development, and the client’s brief. Additionally, if you have used assets not designed by you in developing your project, our interviewers will want to know what part of the project you performed.
Please bring a notepad, pencil, laptop, or other means of taking notes. Our interviewers often suggest ideas for personal development during the interview process, and they want you to take note of any thoughts provided.
Taking notes, recording instructions, and humbly accepting criticism are critical skills we require for all potential employees within our organization.
What should I Dress?
As you will soon learn, our team is relaxed and comfortable. However, given the importance of an interview, we encourage all potential job candidates to dress in casual business attire. We value personal cleanliness and grooming as well.
How can I impress?
While your skills and education are essential, other factors include creativity, performance, adaptability, business etiquette, clear communication, honesty, trust, and attitude.
As a design and marketing agency, we cannot afford to hire people who lack creativity and demonstrate original thinking. We will always look for these qualities and expect to see them everywhere, from your personality to your portfolio.
Your attitude and personality can kill your chances or ensure you are hired.
Interview tips
DO'S
- Learn about RdyToGo before arriving.
- Ask us questions, even sensitive questions during the interview.
- Keep your language clear, clean and professional.
- Be prepared.
DONT'S
- Do not show up late. If you do, your interview is canceled. If you need to reschedule, please do so as early as possible BEFORE your appointment.
- Do not miss the interview without rescheduling.
- Do not tell us that you have a skill that you do not have. (Example: Do not tell us you know PHP if you have only done one school project in it.) Be honest. We would rather hear that you are just learning it.
