[QUOTE]Originally posted by Miz Scarlet: [QB] Yay, good luck! What Kitten and Dzuun have already said so far is great. I can also add a couple things, not only having been through many interviews, but also having done many interviews as a potential employer. 1) Do dress well, with one exception: if your job were to involve say, construction or digging in the dirt, looking like a fragile flower sends the wrong message. Dress as would be appropriate for work at that job, turned up one notch. 2) Bring your references with you. Having a page of two or three references to call, or written references is really helpful and makes a strong statement that you're trustworthy. And always ask references first before listing them. 3) Be honest and sincere. Really, as an employer I can say that those two things can make up for a lot: lack of experience, lack of previous work history, eyt. The best employee is usually the one who cares the most and is upfront and honest. 4) Avoid saying things like, "I really need this job," or "I'll work extra hours," or various things that make you look desparate or a little...well, off. Plus, you never want to make yourself indispensable from the outset of a job -- trust me on this, I have done this WAY too many times. It's an easy way to end up getting WAY more work than you can handle. [IMG]http://www.scarleteen.com/forum/smile.gif[/IMG] Hope that helps! [/QB][/QUOTE]
