Answer to Question 1

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Studies suggest that many interviewers make up their minds within the first 20 seconds of contact with a candidate. Don't let your guard down if the interviewer engages in what feels like small talk; these exchanges are every bit as important as structured questions.

Don't let your guard down if the interviewer engages in what feels like small talk; these exchanges are every bit as important as structured questions.
