• Presentation: Visuals: Power Point Images (5-8 images) about the company and ideas you have for the company. Visuals should give your audience a basic understanding of the company and the position you are looking for. I suggest a Power Point presentation but you can use what you are most comfortable with. Just keep it professional. To really make an impression on a company, it’s best to know about their history, their competitors (other companies that do the same products/service), as well as knowing about their current and future plans.
If you don’t know a company, then start to researching and see what companies interest you. The more you know the better prepared you will be for questions.
