Why being like your boss still matters—especially if you share political views

How would you try to make a good impression at a job interview? Beyond the obvious (making eye contact, smiling, and attempting to appear knowledgeable and competent), what other tactics might you deploy?

Of course not. These days, such a strategy thankfully seems improbable, not only because of its moral repugnance, but also because it is hardly likely to work. (It feels less improbable that it might have been used in previous centuries, possibly with success, at job interviews in the world of colonial bureaucracy, for example.)

But other identities, especially political leanings, can play a big part in helping us to form connections—and use them to our advantage.
