Senior Tax Analyst/Tax Manager (SF)

One way to legitimately boost your chances in a job interview would be to read recent news relevant to the field that you work in to find topics that can show your interest in making the job function better for your prospective employer. For example, if you work as an accountant and you have a CPA license, you could bring up a recent news story about new legislation relevant to financial reporting. By doing this you can show the interviewer that you care about the field that you work in, and that you are eager to find ways to help your prospective employer be ready to meet the new challenges ahead. Many hiring managers will find your interest and currency on relevant topics in your line of work to be a big plus compared to your peers who are not as up to date as you are!
