Good luck!

No-one expects you to be perfect in an interview, so there's no harm in taking a notebook where you've written down the things you want to remember. You can also then take notes while they're talking to you to help you refer back to things they've said.

Also, take a copy of your app form with you. I wouldn't advise referring to it too much, but you can give it a quick glance to refresh your memory before you go in. And you'll have it if they do refer to something you've written that you just go blank on. Shows you're prepared for all eventualities.

If you already know the basics of the company then when it comes to asking questions, say that and ask about differences. "Well, I already know a lot about HCC because I work in X dept, but can you tell me more about such and such?" If you're going to be working on dept information systems (be they computer or just a process) there's no harm asking for detail in how they work.


(gosh I hope that makes sense, I've had about four different conversations with my kids while writing it!)
