How much lower was it compared to what you were expecting?

Question for people who are very good during job interviews
I have tackled and cracked open the mystery of succeding at dating, now I need help in cracking open the mystery of being good enough to get a job when going on interviews. Now if you decide to respond, please don't mention the obvious tips like

dressing well
smelling good
Smiling
Good Speaking
Firm handshake
Asking questions


What I need is a TIP that you won't see printed a lot. I'm interested in knowing some SECERT TIPS that allow you to be good at impressing the interviewer. So remember, tell me something I don't know so I can respond like-"OH, I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT, I THINIK I WILL TRY THAT"

Damm, so you go around stalking people to see what other message boards they post on? I'm sure you are on other message boards right? You proved today you are a lonely retard

No, I proved that you don't know what you are talking about anywhere, if you knew anything about dating, you would know about job interviewing. I proved that your acronym fits you to a tee. TVSG, The Very S????? Guy, the S stands for a word between Stun and Stur, you, I know will have to look it up in the dictionary, but, everybody else, already knows. (especially after your, "I never got this type of rejection before" thread) Say Goodnite Gracie.

I will have to agree and forgot that both are similar which is why I don't see anymore problems in the future on interviews. You have to have a personality and smile and both situations

How about just be qualified for what you're applying for, and have a decent personality?

Well yeah, proving why you are qualified and being likable at the same time.

Oooooh, temper temper! The trouble with telling fibs is that it becomes next to impossible to keep them all straight. Your writing style is a dead give-away too.

It's also good practice to do in this particular situation that which can be difficult. Do the two! Will make you better at whatever you do. Don't mean to insult, but your reasoning not to do the two in one day is wimpy.
