- Research before hand: Prepare yourself for any question that they may ask you. Look up for the companies past trends and future plans. This will help you learn a lot about the company. Try asking your interviewer questions about the company yourself. It will make you seem more interested and aware. This is bound to impress your interviewer.

- Be Witty: Nothing like getting a good laugh or two out of people. It eases the environment and shows the interviewer than you are quick witted, and not only book smart. When impromptu situations arise, chances are you will be one of the people selected to deal with it, thanks to your good wits! But remember, don’t come off as someone who is over smart or condescending
And lastly, smile throughout. Make them like you for the person you are. During the conversation, subtly slip in your achievements, aims and aspirations in life. They are bound to love you. Best of luck!
