However, after thinking about research, it's time think about the interview itself - who is interviewing you?

This is critical, as you can tailor your responses to the people asking you questions.

Disclaimer

Firstly, this stuffs does not guarantee interview success.

BUT, one mental strategy that really helped me was taking 100% responsibility for the result of my application.

Be Friendly

Be Friendly

Treating the interviewers as your friends is crucial.

Honesty

Honesty

And finally, honesty is the best policy.

In the interviews which I tried to be somebody I'm not, I was unsuccessful. I noticed this quickly.

Don't be afraid of your personality.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Laetitia Berton
