Week 3 Project: Mock Interview

Interviews aren't as easy as they used to be.  A job seeker has to go in armed with information and ready to impart it well.

I'm to point out my top 3 strengths in the interview and 2 areas that need improvement.

Strengths:

1. I am outgoing and able to talk to people as though I've known them all my life, so I have a good conversational style.   
2. The stories I use are appropriate and interesting.
3. I have good, solid questions that will give me a good idea on what the company and the job is like.

Needs improving:

1. I need to be a little more practiced and know what I want to say a bit better.  I had to look at my notes a bit too much.
2. I talk with my hands like and old Italian grandma.  I probably need to keep my hands a bit less animated.

The assignment:  A mock interview.  The actors:  Me as the interviewer, me as the interviewee.
