Read this if you want that job!

Job interviews can be nerve-racking, to say the least. But candidates must remember to stay calm, if they want that job. Sometimes, even using the wrong word can destroy your chances of getting hired.

According to this article in Mashable , it's important to not use filler words such as like, umm, and hmm. Candidates should also not use buzzwords such as passionate, specialised, dedicated; this can be a big turn-off as they are generic and overused terms that tell interviewers nothing (good) about the applicant.
