Breaking the ice "The secret is to have one to two good open-ended questions that require the person to talk — it lets you show you are a good listener," says J.T. O'Donnell, the founder of the career-advice site Careerealism.com and the author of "Careerealism: The Smart Approach to a Satisfying Career." Avoid anything controversial, highly personal, or clumsy, Amanda Augustine, an expert in career advice for TopResume, tells Business Insider. Stick to safer topics that will help your candidacy, while confidently and comfortably breaking the ice at the beginning of your interview.
