I have many tips success in any interview. Interviewer seek only three things from candidate.
Firstly, candidate experience in last job what he is works for,in which area he worked. I think every interviewer want to know nore about your experience. Experience leads to success in interview.
Secondly, knowledge about your field, interview want to know about candidates knowledge. How much you understand about your field. Thirdly, candidates personally . Is candidate hard working person or not. A company wants to person who worked hard work for company and always stands any time for company.
