Have self confidence & if you don't know the answer ....................

Ask them to repeat the question to buy time .

If you get this job it will be like winning the lottery to you, best of luck.

Go naked. Always helps. Failing that just sit there and stare them out till they start to look worried, then walk out.

Good luck mate, just prepare yourself with what questions they might ask you, Strengths and weaknesses is key. Also think of questions to ask them. Eye contact and don't fiddle with a pen or start using hand gestures.

Main question to think about is, Why should we give you this job?

Good luck any hows.

Hey, had an interview on Tuesday so been there! A good idea is to think of the type of questions they will ask and then research and make notes on how you would answer them, though not making it seem like you are just reading off a sheet :)
Prep and not being cocky is the key imo

Good Luck!

Good luck :y: I've always found asking questions about the job aswell as them asking questions always shows good interest.
Always act politely and it will get you far, obvious but you would be surprised!

But good luck buddy
