27、al employer without considering your own feelings. Of course, dont be hostile nobody wants to hire someone disagreeable. Take the middle ground between being too a-greeable and being hostile. An effective interview is like an exciting encounter in conversation with your seatmate on an airplane. The

28、next myth is to try to control the interview. Nobody “controls“ an interview, neither you nor the interviewer. Actually, it is an exchange of two parties- like making a telephone call. So hang loose when interviewing: never dominate an interview. The fourth myth is never to interrupt the interviewer

29、. An exciting conversation always makes us feel free - free to interrupt and show different opinions. So when interviewing, try to be relaxed and natural. The last myth, to not disagree with the interviewer is another silly myth. If you dont disagree at times, you consent in fact. Dont hesitate to d
