Looking for your first job after graduation is a stressful process. It means hours spent working through your interviewing strategy, checking and rechecking your resume, even rehearsing your posture and smile in front of the mirror. It's all about making a good impression; about letting them know you've got what they need. You're out there competing with a hundred other grads with the same GPA, the same part-time job experience, and the same extracurricular interests. A new suit and haircut aren't enough to set you apart from the crowd - you need to find a way to make the people in HR see the real you.

- You have landed an interview at the company of your first choice. On the day of your interview, you are called down to a meeting room and you see that you're going to be interviewed by a team. What is the average age of the people on the panel of interviewers?
- The interview is rigorous and thorough, with the questions ranging from the simple "getting to know you" variety to ones that were clearly intended to rattle your cage. You manage to field every question thrown at you, but one in particular leaves a strong impression. What was that question?
- Just when you are beginning to relax and feel the job is in the bag, one of the interviewers begins to point out your shortcomings and weak points. What characteristics does your critic list among your faults?
- That night, the phone rings. It's the HR manager calling with an offer! What do you say in response?
