Do not set yourself up. If you would never dream of working in Billings, Montana, do not bother to interview with an employer from there. Employers look for and are flattered by a candidate's enthusiasm for their opportunity. Do not be afraid to display your genuine excitement about working with them. The decision to hire a colleague rests not only on an assessment of intellectual ability, but also on personality.
Employers hire candidates for whom they feel some affinity and respect.
