Interview Help

[Jemjemm]

Hi, I'm need some advice with regards to an interview I have coming up - which I really want.
The last company I worked for were not very nice and suspended me without pay when I found out I was pregnant. It completely knocked my confidence and is still going on in the background as I'm taking the through Employemnt Tribunal...
I've already had a telephone interview and will be going to a face to face interview (there will be a third interview). I want to come across in a confident manner but scared that I won't be ble to answer their questions in a clear, concise and corporate way..
Can anyone help?
Thanks

J

My thoughts would be to do some research on the company, so you can demonstrate you are really interested in them
That you think about some 'typical' interview questions and consider how you might answer them.
Practice your answers in front of a mirror if it helps, or in front of some people if you have someone who will do that for you.
Think about why you would be a good fit for the job..... what skills or experience do you have? What can you tell them about something you have done that might be relevant to this job ?

Then practical things like making sure you know where you are going, and can arrive in plenty of time, and you feel confident in what you are wearing, etc.

Thank you @BackforGood - I have tried these exercises and I tend to fall over by over talking - I get so nervous!! I haven't been interviewed in 12 years and I keep being told I need to be more corporate - I'm unsure what this is as I try to articulate my answer and make it short (which then makes me question if I provide enough information). I ran my own business for 7 years but my last role l has really knocked my confidence! Maybe some affirmations are needed ;-) My role is quite technical so I have I been reading up on my subject matter and know the company history very well.

I have bought a new suit that I feel comfortable in and shoes that I can walk in - I look very young for my age and I find I get judged on that in interviews as if I don't have any experience.
