What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

Do your homework!
- Research about the company.
- TALK (not text) to as many people as you can, which can tell you anything about the company (Google & LinkedIn are excellent platforms, and people will listen to you). Arrange telephone calls or meetings. Don't be afraid to communicate with people. It'll make you stand out ;)
Once you think you know enough about the company, then tailor your answers to the skills you possess against the ones they are looking for.

- Rehearse answers to questions that are likely to come up in any interview (tell me about yourself, how do your skills match the role, etc...)
- REHEARSE!! I can't stress this enough. Practice answering questions in front of a mirror, with a family member or a friend. The more you practice, the more you will be prepared. This comes back to being able to speak with other people.
- Relax. (if you have done your homework, there is no reason you should be stressed out).
