Find out as much as you can about the company and the position before you even step foot through that door. If you're interested in the business and can show you know your stuff, they'll be a lot more interested in offering you a job! (see more)

Be the picture of the employee you would want to hire. Someone who looks professional, clean and organized. Sit still and listen. Make eye contact and don't lie- a good interviewer is smarter than you (or you would be the one interviewing them) and is looking for someone they can trust to come to work, do their job and not be a pain in the ass. I do background checks on potential customers- imagine what I do for potential employees! ;D (see more)

A lot of what I have to say has alrerady been said so I'll just go over what I do.

Generally, I'll walk into an interview almost overdressed....I don't care if it's freakin Mc Donalds...suit and tie always appropriate. Eye Contact and a firm handshake are a great way to instill confidence in your employer. Sitting up in the chair is a must....attentiveness...little things like that. Pay attention....and be honest. That's all you really can do. Keep it simple! (see more)

Dress appropriate for you possition, taking time for personal appearance may seem shallow and pointless...but you will not fit into a fry cooks position wearing a suit. Also, you must speak to the position, flowery language is not necessary at a truck stop, however being too casual can damage your chances if you are applying for a professional position. (see more)
