You can pass any job interview if you will consider following the next set of tips:

* Arrive at the company earlier, maybe 10 ? 15 minutes earlier. In order to achieve that, make sure you allow time for any traffic problems. In case you are late apologize briefly and don't offer any excuses, because you shouldn't have any.

* Don't go at the interview if you are tired; yawning and lacks of energy don't make god impressions.

* The handshake should be firm. If you are nervous and your hands are sweaty, you can run some cold water over them and wipe them with a napkin.

* Make sure you choose the appropriate clothing for the position you are applying for. A suit might be great for an accountant position, but not for a driller position.

* Be prepared with useful information about the company and the oil and gas industry and you will build an interesting conversation with the interviewer.

* Turn off the cell phone and the pager. No one likes to be interrupted by their sound, especially the interviewer.

* Avoid excessive hand gestures or other nervous habits (like playing with your hair or chewing your nails).

* Speak clearly and try to avoid using words like 'hmm' or 'ah', that could leave the impression you don't know what to respond.

* Think before you speak, especially if you like chatting. The interviewer doesn't need to know what movie you have seen last night.

* Be confident when it comes to your skills and what you can do for the company.

* Maintain a positive attitude.

* Don't hesitate in asking questions about the company. If you don't have any, think of some. The employers appreciate the real interest in the company and the operations they perform, and will consider that you could fit into the company.

* At one point, you can open a discussion about the wages or benefits they can offer you, especially if you are a graduate.

* You can offer to provide them more references about your skills and experience.
