an interview for a job tomorrow, and trying to get hold of the other one who have got back to me to organise another one. First actual job interview Ive had for years so should be fun. Ive the gift of the gab anyway, so hopefully be easy 
Id ask for tips but I think Ive got them all down after the 100 threads in the past few months about it on here.
It'll soon be the end of daytime posting for me no doubt

nice to know you care
Its working in IT, but not your normal tech support or along those lines, more be based with high end gaming/media/workstation PC's - speccing and building.

no, they sell both high end components and are system builders (mainly).
Both on a national scale (Im sure you'll know both companies, one for certain) and I think one sells internationally aswell.

anyway, if the job is in IT, the best way to succeed is to make out you are some amazing geek with great social skills.
If you tell them that you read IT mags and keep up to date with the latest technologies to expand your knowledge, thats always a good one to let out
Also make sure you have some clue about it, I've interviewed lots of people and when I actually ask about the latest and greatest they are like uhhhhhhhh
