However, interviews have evolved for various reasons: 1) There are a lot of candidates to choose from, particularly in the Finance domain, and being prepared for generic interview questions is not sufficient anymore. 2) Hiring is a costly affair, and it require significant investment of time and money in identifying and consequently training the right candidate.

Usually, the HR, Line Managers and Business Heads all take out valuable, billable time to interview and they want to make sure that they have the right person for the job. Also, most people decide whether to hire or not within the first ten minutes – so how do you make those ten minutes count?

You need to approach your finance interview like you would a triathlon. Start well in advance, understand your strengths/ and weaknesses and prepare accordingly. Realize that these interview opportunities are hard to come by. Wasting them is not an option, and each of them needs to be targeted with a specific strategy and goal in mind.
