Default Interview Techniques

What techniques do you use when going for an Interview?

I've found that if you walk in the room confident with a smile on your face, you often get welcoming treatment back.

Woops - sorry - wrong forum!

Another suggestion: Read and re-read your CV until you know every word. Nothing looks worse than not knowing details on your CV.

Yes, completely agree with that. Know all the details and the dates. When did you work for that company? From...to. What programs do you use (if you work with computers) and so on.

Yeah.

Also, apprearance is everything - the first impression an employer gets could be very decisive as to whether the interview goes well.

Yes, always look confident. Even if you are nervous!
Also extend your arm for a handshake, its a nice friendly gesture and will set you off on the right foot with the person interviewing you.

Some people like to make a joke to break the ice, but I tend to refrain from doing that.
