[quote=Anonymous]I'm thrilled to have been invited to the final round of interviews for a Senior Staff position at a major local non-profit with a national reputation. I'll meet with the department that this position supervises, senior staff members, and relevant board members for a total of 2.5 hours.

This will be the largest-scale interview that I've ever participated in, and it will have the most people whose language I don't immediately share. (At my previous jobs, at smaller non-profit, I just interviewed with the CEO or department head, not finance, devo, etc.)

I'd love to hear tips, such as:
-Popular interview questions du jour
-Prepping advice. I'm already going to research the org and people I'll meet with, draft answers to questions I think I'll be asked, practice in front of a camera and a friend....Anything else you've found useful in staying calm, appealing, and on message?

-What to wear. I'm in my early 50s, 5'4", a little plump, chesty. I'll probably feel most comfortable in a skirt with low-heeled sandals (interview is early Sept.) What length skirt or cuts of blouse? I want to be professional but I've never been a suit kind of gal and I don't think this position calls for it.

Thanks in advance![/quote]
