Read carefully.

Be sure you ask your neighbor what SHE calls the different categories for her files. Name the folders you teach her how to make with the words SHE UNDERSTANDS so she'll be able to find things again later.

The only thing I would add to your list of interviewing tips would be to ask qutnsioes that put them on their heels. Why should I take this job? ; Where is this company going in the future? ; etc. all make the interviewer sell you rather than you having to sell yourself.
