Good boss, bad boss On one interview I went on, when I met the two men who would be interviewing me, I met the first one and thought, "OK, so he seems like a nice man and I could work with him."

I was speaking to a manager the other day and he said when he gets a resume, that is one of the first things he checks. If you get an opportunity for an interview you may as well go and try it. Be prepared in the interview with your own questions too. I always like the interview to be a conversation, with both sides talking.
