K-mart called me, and looks like I got a job interview tomarrow at 2:45 p.m. I hope I am not nervous so much. Now all I have to do is act casual and keep it cool.

Keep your cool, be your self, dont mention money, and apply what you (hopefully) learned in school in a careers type class. Good luck, I hope you get the job.

Update us with the results and a play-by-play of what happened...I need to get a job this summer, and have been asking people what they did to get their jobs. Good luck once again!

Don't forget to mention any past arrests. Remember, the more truthful, honest, and outright you are, the more likely you'll be hired.

Also, voice your political views. Every last one of them. Bonus points for any shirts with witty, yet conspicuous meanings, such as "Your village called - Their idiot is missing." Hoho, that one gets a chuckle out of me every time.

Well, good luck. If this is your first interview, make VERY sure you ask how much you are getting payed, just to know. That is something I forgot to do... but still, do that.

Also, be sure you can work holidays. That is a big must. I have to at least... three days out of the year I MUST work: Valentine's Day, the day before Thanksgiving, and Christmas Eve. Then again, I work at Red Lobster and a resteraunt is busier than a store during those days...

Good luck to you!

Bring your lunch to the interview, preferably fast food. That way, they'll know that you're a busy man who doesn't like to waste time sitting down and eating a full prepared lunch. They'll know you mean business and you'll take short lunch breaks so that you can get back to work quicker.

Also, wear a shirt that announces your religious preference. That way, they'll see that you're proud of who you are.

just be yourself and relax--everything should be alright; I've never interviewed for a service position before but just be prepared for social questions

Don't listen to these people. Don't be yourself, be Joe Cool.

Walk into the office with a lit cigarette hangning out of your mouth. (Bonus if it's a cigar.)

Strut over to the chair, sit down, and kick your feet up on the desk and eloquently say "...sup sup?"

That will show him/her that you're the big man on campus and they should hire you immedietly for a supervisor posistion.

Better yet, upload your resume to an Angelfire webpage. That way, he'll see that you're up to snuff when it comes to the new digital age.

Places like K-mart will hire just about anybody. The interview should be a piece of cake. I was called by Loblaws saying they wanted me in for an interview in half an hour, and I was mega stoned and I still got the job.

Don't be sarcastic in Job interviews, unless you really think it would improve the image of you in some way.

After all, there is alot of people that don't grasp sarcasm. :/
