Mock Interviews

Going into the interview I was nervous. I have had interview experience in the past so that was helpful, although I still always get nervous going into any type of interview. To make myself less nervous, I reviewed my resume and made sure I knew everything that I had put on it and how to explain anything if i was questioned on the topic. Also, I wrote down questions to ask when the interviewer was done asking me questions. The hardest question I was asked during the interview was what was my greatest accomplishment thus far. I did have to pause and think about an answer, although after thinking about the question, I came up with a thoughtful answer and gave a completely answer to the question. If I could do my interview again the only thing I would do differently is talk more about the internships I have done in the past. These internships show that I have job experiences in my field of study and show that I have experience working with large companies. From the mock interview I learned that you should always enter an interview with confidence, even if you are nervous. Confidence shows that you are able to handle tough and stressful situations well and that you have faith in your abilities.

The three presentations I enjoyed this past week were Sarah's, Taylor's, and Chesley's. I enjoyed Sarah's presentation because it dealt with our helping hands project. It was interesting to find out more backgorund about our project and to learn about when and how it was started. Another presentation that I enjoy was Taylor's presentation about Central Spirit. I am also a member of this organization so it was interesting to here what someone else has to say about the organization. I liked how her goal was to recuit people to join Central Spirit because new members are always welcome. The third presentation I enjoy was Chelsey's presention about South Africa. I did not really know anything about the country before her presentation so it was fun to learn about. After seeing Chelseys presentation I would love to visit South Africa and visit the resort she talked about. Also, I love animals so I feel as though South Africa would be a great place to visit.
