Follow the interviewer's lead but try to get the interviewer to describe the position and duties early in the interview so you can relate your background and skills to that description. Give specific, concrete and detailed answers. The more information you volunteer, the better the employer can get to know you. Be truthful and genuine. Give an honest answer, NOT what you think the employer wants to hear.
Every interview is different.
Try to anticipate what the employer will look for given the position and the required skills.
