"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

What are some of these skills?

IMO, I think one can do the following:

smile
eye contact
confident posture
kino? (though I think this can possibly be a bad idea)
conversational techinques?

If you can think of anything else, please share it with us. I have three interviews next ween and am really trying to perpare for it.:)
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Had an interview last week, it was a 4 on 1

The most important thing I did was to own the frame.

Also, relax, be confident, eye contact, proper tonality and body language.

And, create rapport with the interviewer(s)

I asked the interviewers/managers about how/why they came to this company, what they like about it, how long they have been here, etc...

I swear by this. Interviewers know almost immediately if they are going to hire you or not.

I pretty much hate interviews. During one interview by (Infinity Broadcasting), i was asked several illegal questions. I contacted my local labor law board and they told me the questions were lega.--i'm in law school now and they were ILLEGAL!
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

What would be some real-life examples of illegal interview questions?

CAn you please tell me more about establishing a rapport? What about creating a good impression?

I know the key is to have a enjoyable conversation, but that might be hard to do when you have so much pressure during the interview.
