help desk interview tips

"interview tip #1:
if you're being interviewed for a computer help desk position, don't relay experiences from your past involving your "annoyance" with people who require step-by-step computer help, thus "wasting your time".

interview tip #2:
do not attempt to read the interviewers' question/notes sheet, especially at the expense of your concentration. taking greater than one minute to answer a question about which email client you prefer is not preferable.

interview tip #3:
if your interviewers send you material to review beforehand, review it beforehand." - (via Chumptastic)

I'd say those are good tips if your interviewing for a help desk job. #1 is certainly a instant good bye from the interview.
