Vijay's O'Reilly Ignite presentation covers how to do well in a job interview for a technical position. They're very basic and a little clumsy, but job interviews are generally pretty basic, a little clumsy, and run by people who don't really know or think a lot about interviewing processes, so maybe they work. If nothing else, they might help interviewees avoid hyperventilating during interviews (which, with technical types, seems to be the frequent job interview strategy). (As an aside, most of the techniques reminded me of strategies covered by the car salesman in Palahniuk's Rant.)

There are a dozen things that I would have changed in the presentation and web page—ranging from lack of concrete, visual examples to the use of Courier—but then again, I'm not the audience for this.
