While conducting your research on your interviewer, identify with some of their shared interests. Take the time to make this connection clear. Just be aware of when it’s time to move on.
Also, during the Interview, pay attention to what the hiring manager says, and anything in his or her body language that indicates excitement. Pick up on it and make a note (written or mental).
If the topic is something you feel knowledgeable about and comfortable in addressing, engage. But don’t overdo it and don’t fake it.
