461- DON'T DO THIS

EVERY ONE GETS TO GO TO A JOB INTERVIEW AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER
Here are a few 'what not to do.' Actually these are the worst things a interviewee could do....
You Can't Take It Back:
Consider these real-life responses from hiring managers who were asked to name the strangest things they had ever heard of happening in a job interview:
"After answering the first few questions, the candidate picked up his cell phone and called his parents to let them know the interview was going well."
"The job seeker halted the conversation about work hours and the office environment, saying she didn't like being confined to a building, but would consider taking the job if she could move her desk to the courtyard outside."
"When asked by the hiring manager why she was leaving her current job, the applicant said, 'My manager is a jerk. All managers are jerks.'"
"After arriving for an early morning interview, the job seeker asked to use the hiring manager's phone. She proceeded to fake a coughing fit as she called in sick to her boss."
So be warned, use your head in the interview room, there is only one chance to make that all important first impression.
