What are some tips for a succesful internship interview?

Question

I have an interview for a finance internship tommorow. I have been spending time researching the company to find out more information about it. I'm wondering how can I make this apparent in the interview and also just some general tips for a succesful interview

Answer 1

Be yourself and you'll do great, that will take out anxiety. I think that when looking for an intern, companies look more for attitude than actual knowledge. Searching in the Internet is a good sign of the attitude a company would value, let the interviewer know at some point in time that you researched... have some numbers top of mind: company sales, company profits, stock price if its publicly traded, main currencies exchange rate if it exports / imports and/or spot and future prices of the product(s) they commercialize if a commodity. I'd have all that info in a sheet of paper in front of me and wouldn't mind taking it out when quoting the numbers... if its a Finance person interviewing he/she will like it (Finance people appreciate accuracy). Good luck.
