Overview
Any conversation you have with an authority figure will go very well today, especially if you don't brag too much about your latest accomplishments. There is a time for tooting your own horn, but this is not it. Humility will earn you a lot more respect than pride. This is also not the time to push too hard for what you want -- let people know what your goals are, but leave it up to then whether or not they will give you the opportunity to try to achieve them.
