It’s that time of year again. If you’re not graduating and looking for your first full-time job, you’re on the tumultuous search for a summer internship or part time job. One of the most stressful parts of finding a job is the interview. Whether you’re a seasoned pro at the interview process, or have only ever been on a few interviews, you’ve probably experienced that awful interview that just totally failed. It probably went something like this:
You did it! You got the interview for your first choice job.

You may have completely failed this interview,
