If you have been late for a job interview, how did it turn out?

Personally, I’ve never been late for a job interview and I highly recommend that you not be either. However, if you ever find yourself in a situation where you will be late there is a great way to handle the situation.
If you are going to be late to a job interview, call ahead to the office and let them know that you anticipate being late. Then ask if they would still like you to come or if they would like you to reschedule. Never assume that you are the only person on their schedule for the day.
Some great ways to avoid being late to an interview.

1. Give yourself extra time on the day of the interview.
2. Do a pre-run drive to the location so you know where you are going and to see if there will be an construction or other delays you can avoid.
3. Be prepared.

Remember, there really is no good reason for being late. Yes, there are things you can’t anticipate happening but being prepared in that case will help you look good in the employers eyes if you can handle the situation with ease.
