What is the best way to answer questions during a panel interview?

Is it acceptable to jot the questions down to be sure you cover in detail? Some tips: Listen very carefully to the questions, and try to match them to the statement of qualifications in your mind. This usually is not hard to do and will give you valuable clues as to how to respond. If you do not understand a question, ask for clarification. Do not read anything into the reactions of individual board members. Generally they take copious notes on good answers and on bad. Keep eye contact with the construction executive who asked the question, and answer that construction executive. When you have finished, look at the other board members and smile. If given a choice, ask to be construction interviewed near the end of the schedule. The construction executive construction interviewed last is the most likely to be hired.
