Answer to Question 1

D
Allow an extra 30 minutes to arrive at the interview site on time and relaxed. Arriving early is
wise, but do not go into the office until 10 minutes before your scheduled appointment.

Answer to Question 2

D
Letting the applicant know that the interviewer has the upper hand is not a standard goal that
an interviewer should have for an interview. Most interviewers aim to give the applicant
general information about the company; establish a positive rapport (relationship) with the
applicant; and get enough information from the applicant to make a decision about the
person's suitability for employment with the company.
