    All the time!

    And since I was unemployed this time last year I have plenty experience.

    My best advice is to be yourself, imagine you were talking to a friend, but obviously a bit more formally. If they ask you a question about your personal experience, try and make it as relevant as possible; remember it doesn't have to be about your work life.

    Good luck!

    I only get jobs through connections that already have a job there. I can't do interviews period. I get in there and freeze up and usually end up walking out really fast in this comical penguin shuffle while apologizing. I don't even pay for my gum at the counter because I don't want to talk to the employee. I def can't go through an interview

    Never been for a job interview because I'm a lazy sod, but if it's anything like an interview for Uni, then yes, it is nerve-racking! =D

    Congratz. =) Where will you be working?

    I've been nervous but once the interview gets going I'm alright. I normally get the jobs I interview for.

    I just need to actually get a call for an interview now xD

    My resume is apparently worthless because I've never been called for an interview
