Secret Interview Techniques

Interviews 


      Interviews are one of the most important thing that a human being must know how to handle. I personally think that interviews are like confessions. The main thing about an interview is so people know what you are capable off and what kind of guy are you and what is your previous experience. In order to nail an interview you must go prepared and ready for any type of questions that you might get. There are a lot of types or kinds of interviews, it might be a face to face or over the telephone or even over the internet. I normally think that an interview face to face would be the best one since you can really contact with the guy ho is interviewing you.
       Interviewers might ask you tricky questions as examples mentioned in the lecture. These kind of questions might be really stupid but they can know what kind of personality you have and how would you deal with situations. Also they might ask you questions about previous experiences to see how would you handle work under pressure which normally all companies prefer, a guy that can work under pressure and be able to finish his work within a deadline.
 I have worked before, so i do know how interviews are made, and i think i did a good job at it but i had some moments where i was asked about specific topics that i never though they would ask. As mentioned in the discussion we had in class, people might ask you about the company which you are applying for, about their history and how they started. So here is one tip that i have learned, always search about the company you are looking forward to work with, know how they started and what they are known for, being able to answer that kind of question would tell them that you are really interested and passionate about working with them.
Since we are all getting into the creative media industry, we all are in need of a proper portfolio to demonstrate the work that we have accomplished. This is one of the things that i am really interested in. How to create a proper portfolio? what should be mentioned inside ? how should the lay-out be ?and all these different aspects.
 In this unit, i will be able to handle interviews in a professional way which will help me getting a proper job in the future, on top of that having a good portfolio adds my chance of being professional at what i do.
