JUST BE YOURSELF (AND act professional. If your interviewer asks you why you deserve this job and not your friend - just tell all of your great qualities and do not say anything negative about your hime/her - friend). Don't forget to eat your wheaties and iron your clothes. AND remember: HE or SHE is NOT a friend but a co-worker. If you really want the job, ask a lot of good questions during your interview. It shows that you are very interested in the company and the position. don't be nervous. Just practice the interview question and prepare yourself. Remember you can do it just believe in yourself Be professional... Give great examples of yourself NEVER say anything negative about your co-workers that are competing with you for this position.
