Go with a CD of Examples of your work - and some links to example JSPs you
have created.
If you went to college, bring a transcript and letters of recomendation from
your instructors.
Wear clean clothes and use a deodorant.
Remove nose rings and ear rings.
Be respectful.
Take your ballcap off when you enter a building.
Don't proposition the boss's secretary while holding your privates.

Or the secretary's privates, for that matter.

Don't proposition the boss's secretary while holding your privates.

And all this time i was wondering why i didn't get that job I
interviewed for. I wish I read this before i went to the interview

In addition to that excellent advice, in September JDJ ran these articles on
interview questions you should be able to answer:
http://java.sys-con.com/read/48839_1.htm and
http://java.sys-con.com/read/48839_2.htm

Don't proposition the boss's secretary while holding your privates.

Unless the secretary is really, really hot.
....

Kidding of course!

I like the article that Kent referred to.

Sometimes the interviewer is looking for your problem-solving ability.
AceTheInterview.com has a list of some Microsoft questions at
http://www.acetheinterview.com/qanda/microsoft_interview.html .

The CollegeGrad.com site has categorized eight types of interview
questions at http://www.collegegrad.com/jobsearch/16-4.shtml .

It's also good to bear in mind that the interviewer is trying to figure
out if you would be a good coworker, not necessarily a programming
genius. So I'll echo Hal's sentiments and add: get there 15 minutes
before the interview, and walk up to the receptionist at 5 minutes
before. (And don't proposition the receptionist, either!)

Toward the end of the interview, they will often ask at the end if you
have any questions. They're really trying to gauge your level of
interest in the company and the job. It might be good to read up on the
company before the interview. You might want to use the 5-15 minutes to
read that annual report gracing the coffee table.

Best wishes for finding the right job.

Written tests are always hard.

See if you can find some sample questions - or find the specific subject
matter.

The best way to prepare for something is to do virtually the same thing you
will be doing.

What is final, finalize() and finally?- final : final keyword can be used for class, method and variables.

A final variable can’t change from its initialized value. finalize() : finalize() method is used just before an object is destroyed and can be called just prior to garbage collection. finally : finally, a key word used in exception handling, creates a block of code that will be executed after a try/catch block has completed and before the code following the try/catch block. The finally block will execute whether or not an exception is thrown. For example, if a method opens a file upon exit, then you will not want the code that closes the file to be bypassed by the exception-handling mechanism. This finally keyword is designed to address this contingency.
