Re: Had a lot of jobs - how do I avert that negative aspect

Hi,

I've been in the position where I interviewed people for possible positions. And it can be quite embarrassing when people are too honest. I think in an interview you should always highlight the most relevant and positive side of any question. Try not to mention the negatives. If directly asked about them, by honest, never lie. If the interviewer notices that you missed something, and he/she/it is still interested, he/she/it will be more willing to take your answers at face value. If the negatives are the first things he/she/it sees or hears, you're not going to get the benefit of doubt.

To summarize: Sell yourself, but don't lie.
