Let me rewrite this paragraph for you:

When a student is preparing for a job interview, there are several ways to improve one's first impression and chances at getting the job. First, the student should make confirm all details of the interview well before the scheduled date. Then he should check to make sure that the location is correct and there is sufficient. The student should also re-check other last minute details, such as the name of the human resources director or the person intending to conduct the interview and specific addresses, such as a particular building or office number.

Good luck!!

I'm a transcription editor. In your opening line, you've already established the following paragraph is referring to students. Make your point more clear and concise. I took the liberty of editing your paragraph:

"When a student is preparing for a job interview, there are several things that can be done to improve their first impression and, thus, their chances at obtaining the position. First, make sure to confirm all details of the interview well before the scheduled date. It is imperative to ensure the time and location is correct. Firm up other last minute details, such as the name of the human resources director or person conducting the interview as well as specific address information, such as a particular building or office number."

I will edit your paragraph but if it isn't right I did my best.

When a student is preparing for a job interview, there are several things that can be done to improve the prospective employer's first impression of him, thus increasing the chance for employment.

Confirming the date and details of the scheduled interview is the first step to ensure success. This includes the right time and location where the interview will take place. Knowing the name of the interviewer and the position held within the company is also beneficial. A quick study of what type of industry and the type of service offered by the company the student is applying for shows that he has taken the time to gain knowledge and will show his interest in gaining this employment.

There you are, I don't think you need to know about the building and or office number of the interviewer as you may not work for this individual at all, know what qualifications are required for the position you are applying for. Hope this helped.

Yes, you can say "the student" in something like this. You first refer to "a student" because the first sentence is non-specific -- that is, it applies to all students in general. Further on, you are talking about one particular student, the imaginary one you have selected as your interviewee. Therefore, you can refer to him/her as "the student". Hope this helps!

Stick with the student. If you use he or she you will offend half the population depending on which one you use. They is plural and doesn't belong in this paragraph.

maybe make the first "student" plural cuz u refer constantly to them or they, which is plural. maybe say student once or twice instead of they or them, and take out the words in the parenthesis
