You are giving the talk for the audience, not for yourself
Your audience easily is spending the equivalent of one workday in common listening to you. Treat them appropriately!
Issues pertaining to every talk
(See for example: G.-C. Rota: Ten Lessons I Wish I had been Taught)
Presentation style differs from paper style
Do NOT run overtime. (Consider at least 2-3 minutes per slide.) Make the presentation suitable for audience
Give your audience something to take home: Have some material for non-experts. Remember: When you apply for a job, non-experts will be deciding!

Presentation
Do not just read off the slides
“Striptease” can be effective but do not overdo it.
Do not run through slides: Quick slide skimming is very bewildering. If you skip material for time reasons explain what you do and why.
Do not assume everyone has memorized the contents of 2 slides before. Neither assume that people have read/will read a handout.
