This is a good article; I think his suggestions are mostly spot on.

Part of my current position is to sit on interview committees. I think I can sum up points 6-11 by simply saying: be interesting and engage the other people at the table.

Interview work is mostly boring drudge work with little payoff for the interviewer. I only remember the interviews where the person being interviewed had something interesting to say. It won't always mean you get the job but you've got a better chance than if we can't remember you five minutes after you leave the room.

Also, don't tell us about your cats on your resume. Seriously, just don't.
