There are a few things you can do to make things go a bit more smoothly:
- Dress appropriately.You may not have a closet full of suits or dresses. Think about what you would where to church or a funeral. Consider borrowing appropriate clothes or visiting a thrift store if you can't afford to buy something new.
- Bring a pad an pen. You may have to wait at times and jotting notes or writing messages to your support person may help pass the time and calm your nerves.
- Ask your representative what paperwork you need to bring and make sure you have this ready to go the day before.
- Leave your cell phone and other electronic devices in the car. Many hearing venues will not allow you to bring any electronics into the building - just leave them in the car!
- Leave your sunglasses in the car, but bring your reading glasses. The last court hearing I attended banned sunglasses on top of the head and even asked you to remove eyeglasses stored there. You may need to read, so if you wear reading glasses bring them.
- Food and drink are also not usually allowed. It is tempting to bring a water bottle and you may feel like you need one, but it is often not allowed. There usually are water fountains and restrooms - locate these upon arrival!
- Arrive early. You may know exactly where you are going and think you allowed plenty of time, but you don't know what you will find INSIDE the building. Often everyone is given the same hearing time and a line is formed to check people in. Allow more than enough time so you don't get frazzled.

They can sometimes be tilted to trick the observer into believing what they'd like to believe. However, in the past few weeks, I've been hearing from staffing agencies, HR Technology vendors and analysts alike that hiring is up.
