2. Try to have a good night's sleep. Eat a little earlier and go to bed before your usual time. If you find it hard to nod off, listen to a relaxation CD or similar to help your relax.

3. Get up in plenty of time and have a good healthy breakfast, even if you don't usually eat breakfast.

4. If your interview is in the afternoon, eat lunch about 90 minutes before the interview. This ensures your body is nourished but gives it a chance to digest too, so your energy is diverted to your brain, not your stomach.

5. As you wait to be called to interview, take some time to think of something that makes you happy such as a family vacation, a comic moment or Christmas. Dwell on the good feelings this gives you. This will increase your

sense of well-being, reduce your interview nerves and raise your confident levels, allowing you to perform better in the job interview.

6. Do some breathing exercises too. Breathe in through your nose, hold for 2 seconds, then breathe out through your mouth. Repeat several times, with your eyes closed if possible.

7. Keep your job interview in perspective. You may feel like you life depends on getting this job but it rarely does. If you don='t get this job, there will be others and your experience in this job interview can only help you in the

next. So keep a grip on reality and don't let your thoughts turn to negative ones.

Follow these simple steps and you'll feel in control of your job interview nerves, instead of them being in control of you.
