Answer to Question 1

D
Being specific and honest about your qualifications, no matter what they are, will ensure that
you conduct yourself in a professional manner. Remember: the interviewer needs someone to
fill an open position and is just as eager to make a decision in your favor as you are to get the
job.

A
To ensure that she is dressed in a businesslike way, Sheila should be conservative about
accessories. She should avoid dangling and gaudy jewelry. Visible body piercings and tattoos
also do not make a positive first impression.
