I interviewed several Americans for a French company about to establish itself in the USA. At the initial interview, I was very impressed by one candidate and therefore, selected him to attend a second interview, whereupon I asked him the same questions that I had asked him during his first interview but this time in more depth. I discovered that he knew very little about the subject matter and subsequently asked him why he had told lies in his first interview. He said, 'What would you do if you had no job and six kids to support'?
I think this is the usual circumstance when you go for a job. You are desperate, you need the job, you have a family to support and debts to pay. What's the use of bags of confidence if you don't get the job. If you hold a pistol to the employer's head for a better deal, make sure you have a job to go back to, otherwise you could be out of a job.
Don't leave your job before you've got another one to go to and don't be so particular if you haven't got a job, in the first place.
Get the job first and then look for a better one.
