- Were you nervous before your interview? If so, tell us how you overcame your fears. If not, tell us the source of your confidence?
A. To be sincere enough. Ya I was a bit nervous. The reason was when I walked into that interview, I wanted that powerful women to tell me everything interesting that had ever happened to her. But, I was nervous like how could I get her started, what questions to ask and see what exciting ever happened to her job? - What did you do really well during your interview?
A.My instinct. I kept chattering and asking questions to kept her feeling comfortable. But I sat quietly to see what comes next and tried to capture her reaction. I was amazed how often this technique yields powerful results. - What do you want to work on improving for next time?
A. What I learnt was not to have a delayed approach to review your notes. We should go over them right away, while everything is fresh in our mind and to review and observe my observations.
