You filled out the job application, got the call , but now... it's interview day.If the thought of selling yourself to a stranger brings you out in a cold sweat, you're not alone - but you can help yourself by not making the following common mistakes...1. Not dressing appropriatelyPaul Webley, managing director of Blaze Media Digital Marketing Agency in Merseyside, says: 'If you are coming for an interview in a marketing agency, dress smart. No need to be in a suit.

'I'd say in your first interview, ask about company culture, day to day tasks, expectations of this role, who's the best performer and why? 'Questions I'd stay away from are benefit-related questions, or I recently had someone ask what the sick pay policy was like in the first interview… Safe to say they didn't get invited back. If you work with a recruiter, you will have salary and benefits info before, so no need to ask on interview.'7.
