If it is your final interview, well done for getting to this stage, but it's not yours just yet. Stay modest but at the same time talk yourself up,don't come across cocky, arrogant, or smug.
It's always better to meet face to face...
Had a phone interview. Had a cold. The interviewer thought I was a man. #interviewfails #sickday #confused #notaman #neededaricola— Failed Interview (@interview_fails) May 27, 2015

Dress for the job you want, not the job you have. Old phrase but the message still stands strong, wear a suitable outfit to each interview. Suits are preferably the way to go as you will come across professional and slick. Wear a suit that fits properly, get yourself measured and find the perfect suit that feels comfortable. If you feel comfortable you will come across less nervous and fidgety. Barney Stinson would also be very proud.
Don't be too honest...
Job interview was going well until I mentioned I plan to go to america in the coming months ... #interviewfails

When asked the question "What would you say your weaknesses are?". Do NOT answer your weaknesses as qualities that are deemed strengths, because your just avoiding the question and coming across as a know-it-all and fairly smug.
Maintain a Professional Demeanour....

Think about the question they are asking you, try not to take too long answering it but try even harder not to say "um" too often because this makes you look a bit unprepared. Start an answer to the question they've asked you with an acutal idea of where you might finish talking. Don't get lost halfway through and ask for the question to be repeated, just take your time and answer properly.
And don't be Sarcastic!
Apparently, answering housewife to the question: "Whats your dream job?" is not acceptable. #Truthful #sorryimnotsorry #interviewfails #oops
