Let's face it interviews have always been one of the most daunting parts of searching for a new job. If you have not attended a job interview for some time you will find in 2026 they will be dramatically different to what you have previously experienced. Companies are embracing new technologies to screen, test, and converse with candidates. 

 

Employers are also looking for more than evidence of your ability to communicate well or insights into your technical skills throughout the interview process. Increasingly, business leaders are looking for signs that candidates have durable human skills, like empathy, resilience, and creativity, when they interact with candidates. 

 

Ensuring you make the right impression in today's world means taking a new approach to managing each interview that focuses on demonstrating extensive preparation, emotional intelligence, and aptitude.
