First of all, you don't know for sure what they will ask.

But here are some good tips. Make sure you are on time, possibly about 5 minutes early. Bring a copy of your resume and any letters of recommendation or some names of some people who are willing to give you a good reference. If you have those ready, it will be helpful.

Also, dress nicely for the interview. You don't have to show up in a business suit, but wear something better than just a nice t-shirt and blue jeans. Make sure your shoes are neat and clean and that there are no rips, loose items, smudge marks, or wrinkles on your clothes.
But during the job interview focus on them and always answer the question in a way that shows how you can help the company.

Also, unless you have been given some questions in advance, there's a good chance they may not ask this question, but you do want to be prepared.

Think about your 3 best skills. For instance, let's say you can honestly say that you are punctual, organized, and a problem solver. Tell them:

I would do a good job for you because I'm always on time and I have good attendance at school because I only missed ___ days last year.

I'm also very organized. I always can find things quickly and know where everything goes.

I'm also a good problem solver, I can look at a situation and figure out how to get the job done.

If they ask for an example, think about an example of each item.

Good luck to you!

You say YES (if you want the job)
He's gonna ask "Why do you think you are the right person for the job?"
and you answer:

"For the same reason that I am here - I believe I will do well"

I have interviewed many people - most of the time I end up giving the job to the person that appear genuine, interested and can keep eye contact for more than 5 seconds..

tell them that you will do somethin' strange for some change. Really, the answer to that question depends on which job you are applying for. I don't know what Giant Markey is, so I can't help you

LOL, sounds to me like that agency became packed with end result and nuts, lol. in keeping with risk there became a distinctive ingredient that saved you from the activity. i do no longer understand, have been you late? hair ok? eco-friendly stuff on your tooth? undesirable breath? hand interior the corporate resume or the McDonalds one? Lol, i'm basically tryin' to cheer you up. there's a good extra useful activity waiting basically 4 u someplace. Oh, yea, and any activity that asks approximately intercourse is as quickly as to be sued, except of direction you have been interviewing for a activity as a hooker or an escort, lol.

Hi. First step is to make sure your spelling is done carefully. Nothing make a person SEEM uneducated than poor spelling. Then be honest. Tell them you need a first step and that you'll work hard for them. And mean it.

first of all, try spelling marquis ( ithink thats how its spelled) right. since you have never had any job experience you should say that you are a quick learner.
