Some great questions and answers. Easy questions, with easy answers! I had an interview recently, and questions like these came up.

I would add one thing to your advice: When they say tell me about yourself, or other open ended questions, I always ask them to be specific. I ask them "what would you like to know?". This allows you to answer the actual question, and give them the answer they want to hear.

Looking for advice; I have my fourth interview, primarily a personality interview to see if we would be a good fit for each other on Monday. My wife is 33 weeks pregnant. I have told the new potential employer that I would need to give my current employment a two week notice. So potential start date would put my wife at about 38 weeks. Everyone that I have talked to, including management from my current employer say that I should not mention that I have a child on the way. This seems a bit dishonest to me and not a good way to start a new career. Any advice on weather I should bring this topic up during the fourth interview or on how to best address the situation would be greatly appreciated.
