What do you do to stand out from the crowd at an interview? Are you extra polite? Do you agree with everything the interviewer says? Do you show up a little earlier? Think about it. Would you hire you? In today’s market having a great resume isn’t enough. You have to stand out from others. Yes, be polite and do show up early but don’t agree with everything the interviewer says. You need to show them during the interview that you have ideas. Pay attention to what they say. Listen and then give your input. Don’t belittle what the interviewer says though. Do your research before the interview. Did the company have a bad 3^rd quarter? During the interview bring this up tell them what you would do to improve. If they had a great 3^rd quarter, tell them during the interview what you would do to make sure this is maintained. Show them you really want the job, not that you are just going through the emotions.
