Tips for successful informational interviews

Just read a great article at http://www.careerealism.com/7-secrets-to-successful-informational-interviews/ that offers some really great suggestions on how to have a successful informational interview.

Even though a company may not have a job opening, you can still get in the door by requesting an informational interview. This will give you the opportunity to get face time, make a new contact or two and be one step ahead of the rest of the candidates should a job opening arise. It’s important to stay top of mind in case something opens up.
