Interview Prep 101
Posted by kriringa on March 9, 2009
Apply for a job and pass the resume screening process? Congratulations! But now you need to prepare for the real test: the interview. The UC Davis Internship & Career Center has the following resources to help students prepare for the obstacle ahead:
- Drop by the ICC and get your copy of our Career Resource Manual, or check it out here. Page 45 has a list of common interview questions that students, like myself, use to prep for interviews
- Have a webcam? Check out Interview Stream. After you create an account, you can be “interviewed” while you are recorded. Students answer the question to the best of their ability and afterward, you can watch how you did! Take note of how many times you say “um,” “uh,” or if you pulled a Miss South Carolina, and try not to make the same mistake during the real thing.
(Even if you don’t have a webcam, you can make an appointment to use the computer & webcam in Room 218 of South Hall)
- Attend an “Interviewing Skills” workshop! Pick up our current “Program of Events” to see when the next workshop will be held by an ICC coordinator
Good luck!
