Knowing them

Knowledge is power – and the internet offers more than you could ever wish for. If you’re serious about the post, you’ll be serious about the company you’re working for. So as well as browsing their website and annual reports, explore any recent news stories to get a feel for the organisation and any key issues they might be dealing with.

Dig deeper into your Google results and you’ll often find all sorts of other information, from blogs to reports of social activities. All part of getting a really good ‘feel’ for the company. Your Mackenzie Jones consultant will also have useful insights.
