NIFTY TIP of the DAY 

Interview Perfect
Most jobs hinge on the interview.
The old adage rings true: Practice makes perfect.

    Of all the things that are critical to your job search, arguably none is more important that the interview. Not only does the prospective employer have an up-close-and-personal opportunity to evaluate you, but you have your chance to pass judgment on them as well. One reason many people have difficulty landing a job is that they don’t “interview well.” This could be due to any number of reasons, but if you haven’t searched for a job since the Reagan administration, it’s likely that your interview skills are not top notch.
