What Do You Look For in an Interview?

Interviews. Some people love them, some people hate them, but regardless we ALL have to do them. Whether we are changing careers or looking for a new hire, interviews are a necessary step. In fact, interviews can be considered the most important step in the overall recruitment process. It’s a time for the company and candidate to get to know one another and, ultimately, decide if they’re a good fit.

However, interviews are stressful. You can prepare for an interview by researching the company and dressing professionally, but how do you know what the interviewer is truly looking for?

We’ve polled Jackson supervisors from the account services, new business, media and human resources departments in search of an answer to this question. Below are the responses our associates gave us when asked what they REALLY look for when interviewing a potential new hire.
