Writing in the Daily Telegraph, Dragons' Den star and businessman James Caan claimed applicants can follow a few simple steps, such as thorough research and good presentation, to give themselves an advantage over the competition.
'Preparation is the key to success. Research the company, but also find out who is interviewing you, as this is just as important. Learn their name, occupation and influence on the business,' he explained.
Mr Caan also said applicants should prepare answers to any questions the interview board could throw at them, recommending that they avoid having to think on their feet.
In addition, he wrote that body language is a major part of interview success and recommended candidates show good posture and a relaxed expression.
Mind consultant Dr Ali Binazir recently wrote on the Huffington Post that IT job applicants should attempt to appear confident when being interviewed.
