What NOT to do on a job interview

A friend sent me this link the other day. It's a list of ten things NOT to do during a job interview. I totally agree with the points made here. I'd like to restate these thoughts briefly in the positive.

1. Smile when natural and only when natural.
2. Discuss the job and the company.
3. Try on your interview clothing before the event.
4. Think affirmatively about accepting challenge.
5. Show preparation and initiative.
6. Always tell the truth.
7. Humor is subjective.
8. Let the little things go.
9. Ask questions about substantive issues.
10. Speak positively about your current (or former) employer.

Seems like we can all agree on these.
