MSN Interview Tips

This one made me laugh. I wish they took their own advice when they wrote it up:

Quote
7. Do you deliver long-winded answers?
Thompson suggests practicing cutting the clutter from your interview answers. She uses a technique where she identifies words as $50 words or $5 words. The object is to construct a sentence using more $50 words than $5 words.

By taking out more of the meaningless words, you are making your statements stronger and better communicating what it is you truly want to say.


$50 dollar words! $5 words!

Does it say anything about wearing a Sega T-shirt to an interview?

Well lets see, if I do some content editing:

7. Do you wear sega t-shirts?
Thompson suggests practicing cutting the clutter from your wardrobe. She uses a technique where she identifies clothes as $50 shirts or $5 shirts. The object is to construct a wardrobe using more $50 shirts than $5 shirts.


So I'd say no.
