Interview Preparation

For this blog I read the articles titled How to Answer the Toughest Interview Questions and How to Deal with Interview Stress. These articles really help to calm my fears of the potential interview questions that may be asked. It is very scary because you are going into an interview totally blind, having no idea what and all they may ask you, but by reading the first article about interview questions it gets you to thinking about questions and how to respond to them. It really helps if you practice different questions, so that when you get into the interview the responses can come to you quickly, but it is also not good to practice too much because it is important that your answers seem real instead of memorized. The second article really helps to calm your nerves as far as the overall interview process. It gives you helpful tips to use before and during the interview such as arriving 10 minutes early to an interview. These articles will definitely help me during mock and real world interviews because they get your mind in that interview process and help to reassure you not to stress or freak out. What happens happens, but it is helpful to do the proper amount of research to help avoid the worse situation.
