Interviews

  I have been pretty strong in interviews so far in my life. It is natural to be nervous. It is natural to be afraid. I think one of 
the key parts when going in to an interview, is that the interviewee must remain clear-headed and confident. People understand that 
interviews can be kind of scary, but they won't have much sympathy if you cannot put together a coherent sentence when you are under 
relatively minor pressure.

  Also, always, under all circumstances, be honest. If they ask you a question you don't know the answer to, either say 'I don't know'
or say 'Well if I were to guess, I would say...' . Lying and bullshitting will get you nowhere, and it proves nothing. I am a 
junior developer, there's no use hiding it. I will make it clear in every interview that I am a capable coder, but that I do not in fact
know everything. I am alays willing to learn, and I am profoundly confident in that declaration.

  From a strategic standpoint, there are certain things all interviewees should come prepared with. Always do a recon report on
the company you are applying to. It looks stupid when you apply to a position for a company, and you do not even know what the company
does or what the job requirements will be. Know what you are walking in to. Also, if you don't understand something, write that down and ask
the interviewer. It shows your level of interest and your ability to find information you need. Furthermore, the interviewee should always 
come prepared with a list of questions. Not 1 or 2 questions. More like ten questions. At the bare minimum.

  Lastly, bring multiple resumès. Bring 10 resumès. There could be ten people interviewing you, and it makes their life easier, 
and you look more professional if you have a resumè for everyone present at the interview. Arrive early, but don't walk in until 1 
or 2 minutes before the agreed interview time. Go to the bathroom. take a deep breath. Relax. Remember that you are there because they 
ARE interested in you. Be honest, be yourself. Thank everyone who interviews you. If you have a good feeling about how it went, ask for
a business card. I will often times send a thank you email to them a day or so after the interview takes place, so that they remember me.

That's it!
