"Just remember to dress as if you already have the job," she said.

It's a good idea to do a dry run two weeks prior to the actual interview.

"The purpose of the dry run is to put yourself in a position that leverages everything positive about you," said French.

"If you have the luxury of purchasing something new, try it on and make sure it fits; or if you know what you are wearing, have it dry cleaned. And make sure your shoes are clean and well-heeled."

现在，推销自己，比以往任何时候都显得更加重要。

最近，在由美国律师协会举办的一次网络研讨会上，针对“如何推销自己，获得全场最高分”的议题，专家们给出了成功面试所需掌握的必要工具及相关技巧。

最重要的事情，是做好准备。旧金山市梅杰·林赛·阿非利加律师人员招聘公司的合伙人玛莎·菲·阿非利加如是说。

“做好你的功课——阅读、研究并了解你即将面试的雇主，以及他的竞争对手的信息”，她说。

记得总要多带几份你的简历，着职业装，她补充道。

阿非利加说，在面试时，应聘者应该在夸夸其谈和拘谨不言之间寻找一个平衡点。

“倾听对方，并适当发表意见，但一定要注意，避免用‘哦……’、‘你知道的……’、‘好像’之类的口头语”，她说。
