Smeal Interview Workshop!!

Aaisha Bhuiyan    2/26/2015
It is right after the career fair and students are getting busier with interviews as companies are getting back to us. So, we need all the interview tips we can get. Doug, a speaker from the smeal corporate office came to speak to us tonight. Doug explained the entire process of an interview and how to prepare of it. We start by researching the company website and learn as much as we can about it. Then we proceed to think about how we might answer the questions being asked at the interview. The best approach to answering questions is the STAR(R) method.

Doug advises us to write our planned answers down and practice them as much alone and with the help of a friend or family. Practice makes perfect. We also learn what a professional brand is and how it is influenced- through our attire or even, manner of speaking. We must never lie and always be careful of what we post on the social media as our recruiter may come across that.
