I am 26, I will have on Monday an interview as team leader, this means that I will manage a team of 8 people in IT. I never managed anyone, it would be my first managerial role.
Do you have some tips that I should use during the interview? Some characteristics/features that a leader should show on the interview? Like strength or leadership or something else.

Thanks.

  Eight is quite a bite to chew for a first time managing, are you task managing them, or line managing as well? I'd recommend starting with a couple of people initially, you'll spend most of your time just keeping things going if you are starting to learn how to manage.
