UNEMPLOYMENT is high, so make sure you make the most of any opportunity that comes your way. Here are five things to do in a job interview:

• Arrive on time, or a few minutes early;
• Never, ever smoke, even if you are offered a cigarette;
• Be confident, but not arrogant;
• Do not lie; answer all questions honestly; and
• Switch off your cellphone so that there are no interruptions.
