Interview Mistakes

I like receiving advice from others so I can better prepare myself for a situation, and I thought that this article was helpful in pointing out interview mistakes that can be avoided.   Those mistakes were big and important to avoid, such as asking stupid questions, giving false information, and treating the secretary poorly.  However, I don't think that these are the only biggest mistakes that could be made in an interview.  I think that mispronouncing the interviewer's name, arriving late to the interview, being inappropriately dressed, chewing gum, or acting rude or conceited are all big mistakes to avoid.  

I have never had a job interview, but I do think that being adequately prepared for the interview will be a benefit.  If I were preparing for an interview, I would search for the frequently asked questions and prepare my answers in advance.  In addition, I would do as much research as I could about the company, the interviewer, and the specific position for which I was applying.  I would also practice interviewing with a friend or family member and make sure I had an appropriate outfit.
