PREPARING AND SUCCEEDING IN JOB INTERVIEWS
PREPARING AND SUCCEEDING IN JOB INTERVIEWS
The basics of interviewing for a job as a college student are the same as those for interviewing for a job as any other professional--preparation is the key success, you should arrive on time, dress the part, exude confidence (without being arrogant), and develop a positive mental attitude, to name just a few.
However, interviewing for a job as a college student is also very different. For starters, this is probably going to be your first "career" job interview ever, and you don't have the same level of experience as a seasoned professional. Below, we're going to address the "Do's and Don't" of job interviewing for colleges students. However, before we get started, we recommend you first review the following two articles. They'll provide you a foundational knowledge of the job interview process.
