Research the industry and specific company like a stockholder or board member. Know where your SKILLS/EXPERIENCE specifically FILL the need, and talk about it at the appropriate time (do not jump and run on...respond when you see an opening). Take the initiative if the interview is dragging along...like any sale revive the interest in you, the product. LISTEN WELL...that is the gratest skill of any leader. The interview is NOT ABOUT YOU, it is ABOUT BENEFIT TO THE COMPANY. Bury your self-pride and litany of accomplishments and education. Use these as surgeon tools...not carpentry tools. Be poised, but not too relaxed. Look interested, but not desparate. Dress well for the job "above the one you are seeking". Potential is appearances at an interview. Lastly, enunciate and speak clearly and well educated. SMILE!! I have, and been, interviewed troughout my life with a pretty good batting average.

I am pretty bad at interviewing so I doubt I could be of any value here for tips. I have interviewed people, and it did pay for me in terms of seeing others mistakes and trying not to repeat them when I am being interviewed. My tip is "Always maintain eye contact with the interviewer or interviewers" ;-) TMW,
