A friend of yours is interviewing for a position as a journalist for a popular newspaper. He has done his research and rehearsed his answers to possible questions. He asks for advice on how to close the interview on a positive note.

What advice can you give him?

My advice to him would be to be himself. When interviewers are evaluating candidates they seek in a simple way to see if people can feel comfortable and be themselves, if the evaluator realizes that this process is easy for the interviewee, he ends up being better seen by him. Many people try to be what the appraiser wants, but this possibility only shows the appraiser that the person is not being sincere.
