For journalists/writers, for god's sake, be on loving time. If you're so lucky as to be offered a position writing for a company or website on contract, the last thing some editor or content manager needs is to have to go to their boss and answer questions as to why a translation isn't done or a piece didn't go up for the day. I am repeatedly shocked that people given such an opportunity would play so fast-and-loose with it.FreakyZoid posted:Last year I wrote this based on some of the things I do and don't like seeing in design interviewees. Recently, we posted a job with the requirement of the applicant being in-touch with pop culture and current trends as we do a lot of licensing. The applicant listed his library card and Netflix subscription. While I would not recommend this to job applicants, we all felt it was the best thing ever and the guy got the interview.

Diplomaticus posted:Counterpoint: for journalists, your interviews at trade shows will run long. You will be late for things. Know what you can and can't be late for. This is completely true. I manage on-site live content for our company as well and have to manage expectations of people who have never had to work or generate content under those circumstances.

Our R&D development lead (also a former pro MTG'r who still games successfully time to time) posted a solid blog about common things that trip-up interviewees. http://www.wowtcg.com/blogs/2011/06/01/rd-blog-acing-interview
