Steve,
Great article! one other thing you should have included: Don't lie on your resume.
I interviewed a guy last week for a database developer job who had 'performance tuning' and 'DBA' on his resume. I asked him what a clustered index was and he was clueless. he also had no idea what an execution plan was or how to backup a database. His idea of a backup was to DTS the data to an access database.
Moral is make sure you know what's on your resume. I have to wonder what people are thinking when they put stuff like that on their resume.
I'd like to see an article on how to turn down a job gracefully, that's can be a tough thing.
