A job interview is a screen test, an act. Getting hired depends almost pletely on the actor factor. If you know your lines, perfect your delivery, and dress for the part, youll get hired. If you dont, you wont. No retakes. No bit parts. Now you can memorize the in advance. There are only so many questions that can be asked and only so many ways to ask them. Oh, there might be minor variationslike the accent of the interviewer, his or her tone of voice, or a pause here and there. Experienced jobgetters appreciate them. Otherwise, theyd undoubtedly start snoring before the offers were extended.

Because interviews are so predictable, theyre controllable. Only the places and faces changenot the words. And you can he them all embedded in your subconscious, ready for instant replay at the drop of an interesting job lead. I knowyou think background, qualifications, or experience he something to do with getting hired. Youre rightnot about the job, though. About interviewing! The director only knows what you show. Thats why the actor factor is so critical.
