For this week, I had the opportunity to attend interview tip session hosted by GRF Sarah. As someone who has interviewed and hosted an interview, Sarah taught us numerous tips on how to leave an impression and what approach each should take when it comes to a job interview.
One important aspect Sara introduced was the two-way conversation must happen in all interview. Rather than the interviewee questioning interviewer, the interviewer should balance the conversation, a talk rather than questioning. By doing so, you can talk more honestly and boldly to the interviewer, and the interviewee will be impressed by the fluent, enjoyable conversation.
In addition, I learned that it is ok to be unique when it comes to interviewing. I remember all the tips and trick of the interview where very obvious as if there were an unwritten rule for all types. Rather than giving cookie cutter answer and view on the question, take advantage of it and twist it. The person who does it will stand out and the interviewer knows that you know how to take a risk and be bold!
I am hoping to in the future extend my knowledge and hopefully do a mock interview with numerous people so that I can get used to interviewing.
