Hi yall after being on disability income for years and job searching for months I finally got to step two of the job search process: a job interview.

I am wondering if anyone had any tips for the job interview process? I am very nervous.

I'm in IT, and I haven't had to interview for a long time (knock on wood), but when I did:

My approach has always been "Your company has a need, I have a certain set of skills. Let's talk, so that I can understand more clearly what your need is, you can understand more clearly what my skills are, and we can decide together whether I would be a good person to fill that need." Think of yourself as a consultant going in for a first meeting with a potential long-term client.
