Silver bullets will do nothing for you once you're in the interview. It's all you at that point.
You have a 100% chance of being hired if you're a prepared, friendly, happy, enthusiastic person who doesn't sabotage yourself.
Every time they send someone packing it is for one of the following reasons.
• Weirdo
• Arrogant
• Doesn't respect the interview process
• Unprepared
• Can't follow instructions
• Can't get past their nerves
• Clearly will leave for Delta
• Rude
• Disengaged
• Apathetic
• Unenthused
• Too reserved
• Too scripted
• Too intense
• No sense of humor
• Caught in a lie
• Won't let the interviewers in to see the real you.
• Badmouthing previous airline
• Negativity (glass half empty)
You get the point!
The same list of do's and don'ts that you would use to get that 2nd date... Use them in your interview and you'll be fine.
Don't be obsessed with NOT getting the job, just let your hair down, lay it all on the line, and go get the damn job!
