    I've just been interviewing and got a job within three days.

    I reckon - Don't be a cocky c*nt like I've just been there ^ (the people who are interviewing you will definitely know more and have more experience than you)

    Don't excuse anything in your folio i.e. "this job was very client-led" etc.

    Don't overestimate your folio

    Don't underestimate it either!

    Just try to have a chat rather than sit and answer questions - try to take conversation away from work and your folio for a bit because the likelihood is that they've seen stuff like yours/everyones a million times and heard all the bullshit in the world about 'why this' and 'why that' - Let them know about yourself and your character - even if it's the most astounding folio in the world - they'll know THAT just by looking at it but it won't tell them anything aboot yersel'

    Be honest

    Realise that they've been there before as well

    Finally, don't rant on as much as I have here...
