    It's interview season, so any tips that anyone has would be great, especially about some of the terminology and technical aspects interviewers like to hear.

    I was at an interview, and some of the questions included how to analyse the success or otherwise of decisions years into the future, and how economic theory and models can be used to justify my suggestions. Lots of interviews involve doing presentations, and under time pressure these can be difficult and intimidating, but I get the impression that they needn't be such!

    Exactly what kind of positions are you applying for? As in, have you a bachelors or masters, is it for economic consultancies, regular consultancies, central banks, research institutions etc?
