Interview Tips for the Jobless

Good Morning,
Today I'm preparing for an interview with a publishing company that I'd really like to work for. As I've been getting ready, I've found a few websites that outline what you should do for phone, first round and second round interviews. I'd thought that my readers would like to know the highlights, so here they are:

  1. Do your research!
  2. Prepare and practice
  3. Smile :o )
  4. Don't interrupt
  5. Talk 1/3rd; Listen 2/3rds
  6. Accentuate the positive; downplay the negative
  7. Ask follow-up questions
  8. Diplomatically avoid or answer THE SALARY QUESTION
  9. Write thank you letters
  10. Check back in

For more advice, visit any of these websites:
