Interview Tips:
Over at Above the Law, David Lat has some pretty useful interview tips for law students interviewing at firms. I would add one more: Don't be annoying. Annoying is bad.
Mr. X (www):
David "impersonating a Article III fangirl and taking over from Ana Marie Cox at Wonkette" Lat is warning the rest of us about what we write on the Internet?

The best law firm interview advice I ever heard came from my wife. "Get straight A's, and wear your lucky tie."

I believe the current phrase for this is "the soft bigotry of low expectations."

Not that this sort of advice is anything new. And not that Mr. Lat has offered anything of substance beyond those hoary pamphlets and presentations presented by career services offices everywhere.

Dang. I was hoping to get some femme tips from her, like what to do when your hose run at the last minute, or how to successfully bat your eyelashes at the hot interviewer.
