I am applying at a job and I just got the call for a job interview, what tips can you offer me about what to say, how to act, etc during a job interview?
Thanks all!

Smile. Listen to the questions being asked, and think about your answers before you blurt something out. Be self-assured and friendly. If you really just can't think of a good answer just be honest, and say, "I'm not sure, could we come back to that one?"
If asked about weaknesses, do NOT try to suck up (eg. "I'm just such a perfectionist," etc). You might say, "Because I'm young and haven't yet found quite what I'm looking for, I haven't exhibited a lot of longevity in previous positions. However, longevity is a serious goal for me, so I want to be sure that the next place I work is a good fit for all parties." Of course, that might not apply to you, but you get the idea.
Don't forget to have a sense of humor and to dress professionally. I wish you the very best of luck!

Be on time but not early. Look the interviever right in the eyes. Be confident don't beg for the job. Be interested in what the company does. Do a google search on the company and know as much as you can about it.

Wear something nice and be polite. Don't say anything negative about yourself, if they ask about what you think is your weakness don't say you have a weakness, say you have things to work on in yourself and then list them. Shake their hand when you leave and say that it was a great interview and that you would really like them to consider you.

Just be yourself. Be excited and answer the questions according to your experience. If they don't hire you, then you wasn't the best fit. Good luck.
