In response to Deanna's question

There are many ways to get prepared for an interview. I haven't had an interview recently but the last one I did have, I wasn't really prepared for. I still ended up with the job but there were ways I could have done better. One thing that you should do before an interview is learn all about the company you are having an interview with. This shows them that you are interested in the company and what they are all about. Interviewing with confidence and giving well spoken answers is also very important. Eye contact and speaking clearly to the person who is interviewing you is another key aspect of the interview process. If you are looking down and not speaking loud enough you probably wont get the job. Dressing appropriately is also very important. If you go into an interview wearing jeans and a t-shirt, they probably wont even take the time to interview you. Going in to the interview with an extra couple copies of your resume is also a nice little tip, this way if the boss or interviewer doesn't have it when they should, you have an extra to hand out. It shows that you are on top of things.

I know there are many of other little tips and information about going for an interview, can anyone think of any others that I didn't mention? Anything that can help you leave the interview with a job or feeling good about the entire interviewing process you completed?
