Need some folks in my corner...
Have an interview Wednesday AM. Trying to change jobs and it ain't easy at 53. Just a good thought is all I ask for.  |

Be confident! Have a family member or relative go over some possible interview questions with you, so youre a bit more prepared. You'll do FANTASTIC! |

Vic is right...here are a few.....
1: How long a lunch break would you like?
2: Is 6 weeks paid vacation going to be enough for you or should we make it 8?
3: For a company vehicle would the Hummer be good or would you prefer an F-350 extended cab diesel Ford?

if your nervous ...about a question
_and you need some time to think
say: i'll need a bit of time to
think about that question carefully
keep your chin up ..& be proud,
go gettum .......

Best of luck. What everyone else said, plus a firm handshake and good eye contact are things that make a first impression with your interviewers. Also, take along something to write with and write down people's names and significant facts when time allows, so if you need to contact them again you're not asking for "what'shisname".

Thanks for the positive wishes. They help a lot. For those of you who don't know, I've been a bodyman for 35 years and it's way past time to get off the floor. I've had my appraiser's license for a while now and I've decided it's time to use it to make my living. Again thanks, the power of positive thought is very helpful.
