Answers:
Best thing to do is be totally prepared. Practice answering questions in front of a mirror or with a friend. Take a couple of copies of your resume with you in case the interviewer cannot find his. Bring a separate sheet of paper with your references typed out in case you are asked to furnish your references in this interview. Bring a sheet of paper with your questions about the job so that you will not forget anything. Bring a tablet and a pen that works (be sure the pen works) so that you can take notes about anything you may wish to discuss after the interviewer is finished speaking. Be sure that you have the interviewer's phone number with you case you get tied up in traffic. All of these things make you look confident, organized, and in control. When you look confident, organized, and in control you will realize that you are all of these things and that should allow you to also control your nervousness. Health Question & Answer

Get a good nights rest before day of interview. Go to be earlier than normal, because I would guess you'll have trouble falling asleep anyway. Morning of interview avoid caffeine. With the adrenaline your body will be producing naturally because of nervousness, you should not add to it with cokes or coffee.

While in interview, try to stay focused. Leave your replys to questions short, intelligent and factual. The more you ramble on leaves more opportunity for you to make an error and become even more nervous.

Last word of advise: When all else fails picture the interviewer in their underware. You will be surprised how picturing this in your head will ease your blood pressure and make you feel more at ease.

most ppl i imagine are going to tell you to imagine the interviewer naked....but i got a better idea that ive been using for years. go in naked yourself! that way every things there out on the table, if that's where u wanna lay it, and no nerves. EVERY time iv done this, iv had no nerves. problem solved, period. good luck!

p.s. Oh yea, if its a business style position, you could wear a tie if edicate dictates u should!Health Question & Answer

Just try deep breathing. And think about your answers before you say them so it comes out correctly. Try drinking some camomile tea before your interview instead of coffee. Coffee makes me jittery. also try practicinh with a friend or in the mirror. Good Luck and try to relaxHealth Question & Answer
