INTERVIEW DON'TS:

• Do not bang the door

• Don't make excuses. Take responsibility for your decisions and your actions.

• Don't make negative comments about previous employers or professors (or others).

• Don't falsify application materials or answers to interview questions.

• Don't treat the interview casually, as if you are just shopping around or doing the interview for practice. This is an insult to the interviewer and to the organization.

• Don't give the impression that you are only interested in an organization because of its geographic location.

• Don't act as though you would take any job or are desperate for employment.

• Don't make the interviewer guess what type of work you are interested in; it is not the interviewer's job to act as a career advisor to you.

• Don't be unprepared for typical interview questions. You may not be asked all of them in every interview, but being unprepared looks foolish.

• A job search can be hard work and involves frustrations; don't exhibit frustrations or a negative attitude in an interview.

• Don't go to extremes with your posture; don't slouch, and don't sit rigidly on the edge of your chair.

• Don't assume that a female interviewer is "Mrs." or "Miss." Address her as "Ma'am." unless told otherwise. Her marital status is irrelevant for the purpose of the interview.

• Don't chew gum or smell like having smoked.

• Don't allow your cell phone to ring during the interview. (If it does, apologize quickly and ignore it.) Don't take a cell phone call.

• Don't take your parents, spouse, fiance, friends to an interview. If you are not grown up and independent enough to attend an interview alone, you're insufficiently grown up and independent for a job. (They can certainly visit your new city, at their own expense, but cannot attend your interview.)

• Avoid hand movement.

• Avoid looking up and down.

• Avoid hiding eyes it shows lack of confidence.

• Do not forget to wish the board.

• Do not sit until the board asks to do so.

• Never put your file or hand on table

• Don't show irritation while board questions

• Do not try to defend yourself in wrong answers.

• Do not make noise while sitting and leaving the chair

• Never ask questions to the board.

• Do not be nervous.
