Acing job interviews

by Jen (March 21, 2007)

LifeHacker has a good collection of links from the past on how to ace a job interview:

• Job interview tips from a recruiter
• The top 50 common interview questions
• interview-related posts

And now a new one:

The problem is, most people can’t figure out a story to tell about themselves, so they start listing facts. This is boring, and research shows that listing facts about ourselves instead of telling stories actually makes us feel disjointed — which is, of course, no good in an interview. Compelling stories make us believe in ourselves. So find a story arc to your career, and tell it during every interview.

Oye, that won’t be easy.  Which probably means it’s a really good idea.  Check the comments to the above post to get some more good suggestions.
