So I have a job interview next week. (Day one is in the books page 4)

Been unemployed since the last of April and haven't had an interview since May, so I'm a little desperate for this job. Besides being confident and bringing my A game, what else should I do during the interview.

Direct eye contact and don't blink

Literally place your nuts on the table.
It shows you're serious.

Explain how this happens?
I literally cannot comprehend this.
Are you trying at all?

They are going to ask you what have you been doing while you have not been working. Don' t just tell them 'looking for a job'. They are looking for continued education or some type of professional growth.

Wear a tuxedo to the interview. It lets him/her know you're serious.
And offer them oral sex too.

Have some canned jokes ready.

- You absolutely love teamwork. Have some examples of how much you love teamwork ready. Seriously, you love the shite.
- They're going to ask you what you liked/disliked about your old job. No matter how big an a-hole your boss and coworkers were, you liked them.
- If they've been trained in this shite, they're probably going to do the STAR - situation, task, action, response - deal with you. Make sure you have one handy.
- Have one or two questions for them ready. Try to make it seem like you're interested and have done a little bit of research on the company, but don't cross examine them like you're Perry Mason and don't probe too far, or you'll look like you've been stalking the company.

Post on the ot a play by play of every detail during the interview.
Also, make sure to include your post count on your resume. They will be impressed.

I've applied for roughly 80 jobs, this will be my 4th interview. So, yes I'm trying, there's just a lot of competition at the moment. Also, being a new college graduate means I have not much experience, and no one wants to hire people with no experience.

Solid advice.
Knowing what job/industry you're in would help.
