1.	When explaining why you are applying for a certain job, stay focused on the positive aspects and avoid criticizing your former employers. Also, do not discuss salary or vacation; save those topics for the second round of interviews.
2.	When discussing what you can offer the company, provide concrete examples of positive contributions you made at your current job.
3.	When describing your understanding of the position for which you are applying, confidently explain that you possess the skills and qualifications to do the job well.

PART B_2

A:	Keiko, can you tell me why you applied for this position?
B:	Yes. Firstly, I feel this job matches my skill set perfectly. Not only would I offer your company a fresh outlook, but working here would allow me to reach my full potential as a professional. Secondly, I would prove myself as a committed company employee.
A:	Okay. And how do you think your experience at your current job helped prepare you for the work you’d be doing here?
B:	In my current position, I had a lot of opportunity to grow, and I mastered the art of working harmoniously with others. I learned how to cultivate strong inter-personal relationships. I am confident that I can offer what you are looking for.
A:	Great. Now I’d like to ask you about how you see this role, this sales position. We have many sales associates, so how would you stand out from the others?
B:	Well, in addition to working well with the team, I believe it is important for the sales associate to continually and proactively seek out new leads, bring in fresh ideas, and follow through on these ideas. You can’t just sit around waiting for things to happen; you create your own opportunities. So basically, I see this as a key liaison role: I will be connecting the company with future clients, thereby increasing sales.
