Graduate Market Knowledge

How much do you really know about the industry you want to get into? For most graduate employers knowledge of their industry is extremely important. An in-depth opinion on the subject not only shows that you know what your talking about, but it also says a lot about your passion and interest. What do you like about the industry? Learn a brief history and be able to comment on where it could go in the next 5 years. Who are the big players and where is the company you are interviewing with positioned in the market? Remember, to an employer and the employees interviewing you their industry and service is something they think about all the time during the working week.
