Job Interviews, My Experience & Thoughts

Then, respond to the article. Do you agree that these are the biggest mistakes that you could make in a job interview? Have you ever had a job interview? Describe what it was like? What can a person do to be well prepared for a job interview?

I do agree with the mistakes the article warned us about. Interviewing is a hard and nerve racking thing to go through and when tension gets high people tend to make mistakes. Which is why interviewing for jobs can make or break you. I have been through a few job interviews but I did not personally think they were too tough because they were either for lifeguarding positions or waiting tables, a job I was never too worry about not getting. There is always another lifeguarding job around the corner. When you go to a job interview you are asked serious questions about yourself, questions you might not be perpared for so the most important thing is to be honest, just like the article said. Employers can attain background checks on you so it is important to not strech the truth. What a person can do to be perpared for a job they really want is go through a series of questions provided through bestselling books. Or even better yet, they could go to an employer of a competing company for the employer they want to work for and have an interview with that company to get some practice. This may result as two job offers as well, so it is a win win situation.
