Today's Tidbit: Preparing for an Interview

Today's tidbit is about interviews. Many new grads want to know how, exactly, to "prepare" for a job interview. This article explains the process pretty well, especially this tip:

"First, use LinkedIn to find profiles of company leaders and read about them. Did many or all of the firm's top brass come from the same set of firms in the same industry? Reading what these people have written in their LinkedIn profiles (not what was written about them by the company's PR department) can give you insight into the types of managers this firm employs."
