"  There are few serious job interviews for which wearing a business suit would be the wrong move. Arrive at the premises a full hour in advance. Yes: an hour. Find a bench outside and sit down. Relax. Watch people coming and going. Absorb. Planning to arrive an hour early also mitigates against getting hopelessly lost. But don&amp;#039;t arrive at the interview itself more than five minutes early. If possible, wash and dry your hands immediately before going in. No sweaty palms. Bring a notebook and a pen. Bring your r\u00E9sum\u00E9. Flat, not folded. Bring a smile. Stand in the waiting room, even if you&amp;#039;re asked to take a seat. You look better when you&amp;#039;re standing up, and this is the first look at you they&amp;#039;re going to get. Same thing if you&amp;#039;re shown to an empty room and asked to wait there. Let the interviewer sit first. Please take a moment to turn off all electronic devices. Your first line, every time: &amp;quot;I really appreciate your taking the time to talk to me.&amp;quot; The theme of the question-and-answer part of the interview is: What you can do to help the company. They will ask all about you and what makes you so great. What makes you so great is what you can do to help the company. By the way, you have done a lot of research about how you can help the company. No profanity. Ask a few questions of your own. Good example: &amp;quot;What&amp;#039;s it like to work here?&amp;quot; Bad example: &amp;quot;Do you have summer Fridays?&amp;quot; That same day, e-mail your thanks and mail a handwritten thank-you note to everyone you met. Overkill is better than underkill. PLUS: More from Esquire&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;Working&amp;quot; Collection &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
