All right, usually I blog about everything, but I decided to start a thread instead. My current situation is that I've been interviewing for multiple jobs this year. I applied to MANY jobs, but I've also gotten many requests for interviews. Pretty much all jobs are Engineering (mostly Electrical, some have been more software/systems/etc. type of Engineering). Although I'm currently employed, I've been looking for a better opportunity which utilizes my college degree/skills/interests, one that gives me the good professional experience to advance my career, and a job I'd feel happy to go to each day. I've been really down about my current situation, so I'm trying to do better.
Anyway, I had over 15 interviews this year (mostly in-person, some phone interviews. One phone interview led to an in-person interview). Majority have been internal to my company or at a company which use to be a part of my company. I've traveled around on job interviews with my hotel paid, meals paid, trip paid, etc. but still no luck.
Anyway, I'm just looking for some helpful hints on job interviewing that could help me out such as questions to ask the Hiring Manager, what questions might I be asked and how to answer them, or even just general interviewing tips.
I really hope to land something soon because there's a chance I'll be laid off my current job in less than a year (with the downsizing going on) and it could be a massive financial drain if I end up going back to school (I'd like to go back, but would rather wait until I get the Professional experience that helps).
