6 things you should never do in a job interview

1) Don't just list your achievements Candidates who list their  achievements without explaining their impact or linking them to the role can put employers off.

2) Don't overshare about your personal life Employers and interviewers are specifically trained not to ask questions around candidates.

3) Don't brag about how you can use particular products or technologies Interviewees can fall into a trap of bragging that they're able to use particular products or technologies to solve problems.

4) Don't say anything negative about a former boss Never bash your employer if you're asked why you left a previous job.

5) Don't ask general questions Candidates should avoid asking potential future colleagues general questions as they won't reveal anything.

6) Don't rely on your prepared questions to learn about the company Some candidates only research a list of questions to ask at the end of an interview, but the best ones do specific research and demonstrate their knowledge of a company said.

For example, he suggested finding interviews with a company's founder and giving specific examples of what they heard.
