Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Going deeper than basic research and learning everything he can about the organization and the position would be the most effective strategy for Barney to prepare for his interview. This would allow him to speak more confidently and knowledgeably about the company and demonstrate his interest and enthusiasm for the position. While downloading podcasts or contacting employees on LinkedIn could be helpful, they may not provide as comprehensive a view of the organization as doing thorough research. Referring to business books and directories could also be helpful, but may not be as tailored to McLloyd Brokerage specifically.
