I remember each time I ever went looking for a job (or when jobs came looking for me) that before I\u2019d go in for interviews, I always made sure I knew what my personal philosophies were on a various number of issues and topics.  Not only did I make sure I knew what I wanted to say, but I made sure I rehearsed my responses.  Nothing for me works as well as after I\u2019ve said it out loud a few times first.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t to say that a job seeker should go into these questions and memorize answers.  It\u2019s not something I\u2019d ever do as I have no idea if those answers are the ones I would personally choose for myself.  They do give some good guidelines however:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In general, be upbeat and positive. Never be negative.<\/li>\n<li>Rehearse your answers and time them. Never talk for more than 2 minutes straight.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t try to memorize answers word for word. Use the answers shown here as a guide only, and don&#8217;t be afraid to include your own thoughts and words. To help you remember key concepts, jot down and review a few key words for each answer. Rehearse your answers frequently, and they will come to you naturally in interviews.<\/li>\n<li>Find out what an employer wants most in his or her ideal candidate, then show how you meet those qualifications.
