What Employers Want: The Interview (and do not forget that Thank You Note!)

I recently received the feedback below from an employer that I work with. I found it to be very helpful in gaining insight into the evaluation process and what truly stands out when someone interviews:

the important ingredients to a good interviewee are:
- Decent presentation (clean clothes, well groomed, etc)
- Bringing a copy of the resume
- Maintain regular eye contact
- Understanding that you do not know it all and are eager and open to learning
- Make sure to send a thank you note! It shows you are serious about the job
- Everything else is just general chemistry and qualifications.
