Applying for a Job III

job and when you’ve finally found (сказуемое в Present Perfect Active) an appropriate position, you’ll have to go through a stressful experience of a job interview either in the agency or in the company. But if you prepare yourself  (возвратное местоимение) properly, you can minimize the stress and at the same time greatly increase your chances of getting (герундий в функции определения) the position you want.
