Can't agree more with all this advice. Here are a few things:
- answer all the questions honestly. If you don't get the job, it probably wasn't the right fit for you and you wouldn't have been happy long-term.
- get the book Now, Discover Your Strengths and take the test. It will show you your top five natural strengths. I won't go into this here, but if you follow this advice, you'll be able to use this at the self Q&A portion of the interview.
- in the portion of the interview when you get to ask questions (self Q&A), ask about what is important in the right person for the role and then look for ways to insert yourself into that model. The info from the previous point will help. It will also help to be able to share examples of what you have done in the past that would indicate your potential behavior in this position in the future.
Good luck and let us know how it goes!
