We think that our goal as a candidate on a job interview is to please and impress the interviewer – to make them like us.

To do this, we can unintentionally spend most of our energy at the interview working to make the interviewer see that we really, really, really want the job.

But it’s just an interview – how would you know whether or not you want the job?

You need to gather information in the interview and then think about it.
