14.Relax during a job interview
Few people actually like job interviewing.It's nerve-wracking(傷腦筋的)trying to show your"best"self to a perfect stranger.(36)EThat's not easy.But there are some ways to pull yourself together and feel more confident.
Prepare solid talking points.It's always best to over-prepare for possible questions by not only researching the company and the person interviewing you,but also by preparing answers and practicing those responses.Review the skills and experiences requested in the job announcement and have two to three examples how you have demonstrated each one.(37)G
Remember:It's a two-way street.This is a conversation,not an interrogation (審問(wèn)).(38)FRemembering that this is a back and forth discussion,where you can and should ask questions as well as answer them,can help you feel more comfortable.
