10. Not asking for the job

The interview is winding up and love is in the air. Now it's time to close the deal.

Don't fall down and forget to ask for the job.

It's very appropriate to ask your interviewer how you did and whether he or she needs anything else from you. It's also the right time to reinforce your interest in the position. Make sure they know of your desire to join the firm.

Companies want to make offers to people who are going to accept them. You will advance your chances if the company knows you are going to say yes.
