4.   Speaking too much about yourself and your interests at the interview could be a turn off for the other person, you must emphasize more on what you are able to do for the company, everybody needs to know what benefit they could get from you and so you must be objective about it.

5.   References are always very important to be kept prepared, you must always have a lots of references prepared at your end to be provided upon request however don’t add references in your resume but make sure that you have them lined to be presented when required, you must not look for them at the eleventh hour.
