• Have a basic understanding of our business; review company background, recent press releases and the business description sections of the latest annual report, all available on mirant.com.
• Be prepared to talk about how your strengths and previous experience will contribute to the company, and how it directly applies to the open position.
• Sharpen your listening skills so that you understand and answer the questions to the best of your ability.
• Express a desire for the job. Why do you want to join Mirant?
• Show enthusiasm!
• Err on the side of being overdressed as opposed to underdressed. A suit never prevented anyone from being hired. However, for safety purposes, be sure to wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes/boots when interviewing at the plant.
• Watch your body language and eye contact; consider practicing with someone.
• Admit when you don’t know something; it’s okay — and expected — to not know everything.
• Ask questions!
