Do's: smile Dont's: Whenever the interviewer asked you, "Why should I hire you?" Never describe what you can and what you are but express what you can do for the company in a symbiosis sense. (just read at jobstreet newspaper)

Hi gorgeoustill! :) One of the things that my family used to tell me whenever I go to an interview is to always keep in mind that "you're trying to sell yourself to them." You should be presentable and neat and don't forget to keep calm. Always be polite and courteous to the interviewee because first impressions always last. Greet the interviewee, shake his/her hand and smile. Just try to keep it simple when answering questions and not answer in a very long narrative way. If you have a previous experience related or similar to the job you are applying for, don't forget to mention it when you are asked by the interviewee because it is a plus factor for them to hire you. :) I'm not a pro in how to ace an interview but I hope any of those would help you out. :) Best of luck on your interview! :)

Hi camposkat! Thank you for the tips. I will definitely keep these in mind. But don't you think the shaking of hands is too formal? Well I'll do it anyway:). Thankyou so much! Have a great day!
