I know I can nail the technical questions but I’m worried that i look sleazy.

The additional context wasn’t necessary but I wanted to see how the photo posts are formatted for lemmy

    I have hired lots of IT staff: Your outfit is fine, but you might want to make sure your shirt is fully tucked in so you look a little more squared away.

    Just relax, be yourself, and remember you are interviewing them just as much as they are interviewing you.

      Yep, I agree with this. Ask what their training programs are like, do they offer opportunities to learn and grow? Certifications help, but actually being able to do stuff correctly and with understanding is far far more critical.

          Yep, no reason to work otherwise. All I’m saying is, see what the company’s managerial philosophy is like by asking gentle but probing questions:

          • Do they want to empower their workers to improve, thus improving how the company functions long term?
          • Or, are they a churn and burn operation, focused on max output for minimum pay?

          Most companies are somewhere in-between, and that’s the thing to figure out. Just my opinion though.
