00:00:00.001 --> 00:00:02.832
With any luck, you will be 
interviewing for the job you'd 

00:00:02.833 --> 00:00:06.183
most like. Avoid telling the 
interviewer that you want 

00:00:06.184 --> 00:00:07.412
their job. 

00:00:07.912 --> 00:00:11.105
Try to avoid specifics here, 
unless you are interviewing for 

00:00:11.106 --> 00:00:14.730
your dream job right now. 
Talk about the type of people 

00:00:14.731 --> 00:00:15.989
you'd like to work with. 

00:00:16.489 --> 00:00:19.459
The interviewer is looking for 
insight into your decision- 

00:00:19.460 --> 00:00:23.648
making process. Avoid saying,
"I am a people person,"

00:00:23.649 --> 00:00:25.002
at all costs!

00:00:25.502 --> 00:00:28.833
Show the interviewer that you
carefully planned your career,

00:00:28.834 --> 00:00:31.675
and that you had no mistakes
along the way.

00:00:32.175 --> 00:00:35.195
You do have a choice, and you
chose to interview with

00:00:35.196 --> 00:00:36.374
this company.

00:00:36.874 --> 00:00:40.279
If you think it will be
helpful, offer a name. If not,

00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:43.854
simply describe the person and
the effect the person had on

00:00:43.855 --> 00:00:45.250
your career development.

00:00:45.750 --> 00:00:49.536
Have reasonable expectations,
but don't talk about salary!

00:00:50.036 --> 00:00:53.651
Sound ambitious (if you are),
but do not appear as though you

00:00:53.652 --> 00:00:56.759
are out to take the job of the
current company president.
