Question: I Need to Know How to Ace a Job Interview? I have been working for the Social Security Administration for 20 years. Last year I was deployed to FEMA as CommunityRelations Specialist. I enjoyed this work so much I decided to apply for a  permanant position. Well, I have been called for a job interview. I have not had a job interview in 20 years! I am a little anxious about it. Can anybody give me some good advice on what type of questions to expect, what the best replies may be and the do's and don'ts.

Answer: Always talk positive about yourself- even when they ask you "What do you feel is your biggest weakness as a worker?" Questions like these are designed to trip you up.  They're looking to see that you have a positive image of yourself.  Turn a potential weakness and make it sound good.  I use something like "My determination to get things right... " as a weakness.  Also they might ask you what you disliked (and liked) about your last job.  Turn a dislike into something positive, never ever talk negative about an employer, even if you hated the job. This site helped me, hope it can help you out too :]  Good luck!!
