Don't attempt the methods found in Trainspotting. Alcohol and amphetimines do not make for a good interview, unless you're just trying to stay on the dole.

Eye contact, firm hand shake, don't wear overpowering cologne. Look professional and use somewhat normal grammar. Bathe first and wear celan clothing. Don't sell yourself short. It's all about making them want you so your basically a salemen trying to get them to buy you. When salary talks come up, always try to get the ball back into their court and make them give you an offer first. They know what they are ready to spend so try and get the full amount, or at least what you are worth. Be prompt but not too early, 15 - 10 minutes.

Most importantly, relax and be yourself. If your normal behavior sucks, then fake the funk and pretend to be some one who isn't a jerk. Then after you're hired you can be the biggest tool you want.

Fuck! I was just about to come in here and suggest he follow the Trainspotting method. He prolly wouldn't get the job(s), but I'm sure it would have made for a funny story for the rest of us. wink
