Damn it!! Shucks. Sorry Radar. Hey, like I said. Dust yourself off and nail the next one. Don't wait for a call back....keep doing the interviews until it's definite.

Act like you like the interviewer (on a friendship level). I hate to say it...but they have to like you immediately . And if they don't.....there is no skill set you can have that will turn the interview around. The only way for them to like you immediately is to like them and stay comfortable...because it is a new friend and friends understand minor goofs on tech. questions. It sounds petty...like people judge your skill set by what you look like and whether they can see themselves getting along personally with you or not. But it's true. Be professional.....but like them...give them the feeling of comfort and friendship. That's how my friend survives as the last remaining female Techy at her branch at Microsoft. She has the skills believe me...but she's the one that everyone is friends with and likes on a personal level. I always get the feeling that Gates monitors from the top down ...I bet he likes her too.

I have goofed on tech questions because I went to the entirely wrong interview, and ended up being called back on a tech support interview. They liked me immediately (the 2 interviewers). I don't know why. At the time I knew a lot less about basic computer stuff and still got hired because they liked me.....I thought...holy crap....I only got 2 out of 6 right....but they liked me and hired me immediately?!?

I bet you are likeable in person. Subtle charm......subtle charm...

Or maybe they'll call you back just because they liked you...You don't know yet do you? Did the guy act like he was completely turned off?
