Don't take the Fifth Amendment on anything.
Don't ask they if they check references before you provide them.

Do tell them the reason for leaving your last job but don't tell them it was part of a conspiracy.

Don't try to skirt answers, for example: if you are asked if you have ever been charged with sexual harassment don't say "it depends on what you mean by sexual harrassment".
Don't tell the interviewer when you are asked what your goals are, that you would like to have a job like theirs because it is so easy.
Don't ask them at the interview if it is possible to get an advance on your wages.
