The most important thing is obviously the knowledge of SEO (on page and off page both). Make sure you test your SEO skills on your own once before going for an interview, you can do this by answering these "SEO job interview questions" properly. You don't need to write the answers anywhere just go through these questions and see if you know them or not, if you get stuck on any question then look for the answer and update your SEO knowledge bank, this practice will enhance your knowledge a lot.

Now, after answering those questions you must be feeling more confident for sure but it's time to get back to the earth because the interview is yet to go.

It's always lame to go without any work to show in the experience column of resume. I know to gain experience you need work but it doesn't mean that you can get that experience from jobs only. You can create your own web pages or blogs and optimize that blog for search engines and make list of keywords on which your blog is on top and add these details in your resume under the section of work done or experience.

About your resume: Create an elegant and descriptive resume. Your resume should be the reflection of your image because an attractive resume will win you half the battle. Don't write anything which is not true about yourself or about your work experience. By lying in an interview you will be putting yourself in a great danger of not getting the job.

Be yourself when you are on an interview, don't think that you are the smartest ever and other candidates are dumb and moreover don't act like a jerk in-front of the interviewee by carrying an attitude of "I'm the smartest and I know it all". This kind of behavior will kill your job chances for sure because nobody likes to be treated badly and also a person with attitude. Respect the competition and face the reality, give respect to your interviewee, even if you know more than the other person in terms of technical skills, you must be more generous then because that will reflect your maturity level and the sense of responsibility.

Some basic interview tips:


  • Always wear a formal dress for an interview.
  • Keep your shoes clean, they will always get noticed.
  • Keep your hair tidy and it will be better to have short hair.
  • Keep your all the documents, resume and other stuff in a folder or an elegant office bag.

The most important thing is how you feel about yourself and how much you think you deserve this job, that's what matters the most. This is what drives a person to push the limit and perform at his best no matter what are the conditions. I hope this post might have been of some use to make you prepare for your SEO job interview.
Finally I would like to say "Best of luck for your interview". If you liked this post then subscribe to my blog for latest updates on posts on SEO tips and guides.
