Violet {Autumn Vibes} This isn’t from experience or anything but I think the most important thing is to be friendly and open. Share stories that make you look good or could be relatable and make sure to stay professional. If the interview doesn’t go as planned, don’t worry there are more wonderful places that would be glad to have you!

I hope this helps! I’m not one to talk in front of people but good luck! I hope the interview goes well 🫶🏻

Lily ✝️ I don't have any experience with this, but my parents have told me that (when doing a job interview), always be open and willing to doing anything. Idk if you're interviewing for a specific position or what, but if they ask what position you'd want, state your preference but also show willingness to help where needed!

Like I said idk if this will apply to your situation, but there you go! Good luck, praying for youuuu 💗

message 13: by angel (new)

angel Good luck with the interview! I have experience in customer service work so a few tips:

- Be there 10 minutes before

- Dress smart casual (based on job you're applying to)

- Think about the kind of responsibilities you would have and what skills you would need.

e.g. Customer service/working with the public: Friendly, approachable, confident, understanding, positive, can communicate well and patient.

Often they ask for examples of when you have showcased these kind of skills. Don't worry if you don't have much experience/first job, I used examples from college projects, extracurriculars, voluntary work.

The interviewer understands how nervous people can be so don't worry if you forget things/trip on your words. It's better to pause, take a breath and continue/repeat.

At the end of the day, if the interviewer isn't giving good vibes/appreciates your value then that's not the kind of place you would be happy working in!

Fingers crossed for you :) <3

oh wow that’s a lot of tips, thank youuu!


savannah&#x1f496; honestly talk about how amazing you are. like what you would be able to offer if you got this job, that you have a great work ethic, your super friendly + flexible, e.t.c. don't be afraid to share your strengths.

Kaylee {author and editor} •take a second to find the answer, the first thing that pops into your head is the answer. (Ex: what’s your favorite color? It’s really pink but you think green, green is the answer)
•BREATHE. They want you to be calm and know you won’t fold under pressure. Take a ring you can move UNDER THE TABLE.
•if you can, go over questions and have people help you. Even if the scenario seems crazy, do it. (Ex: what would you do if you had romantic rumors going around about a coworker?) {I had a similar question and it helped me with other questions too.}
•write everything down about yourself. It’s so hard to talk about yourself so make sure you write down EVERYTHING about yourself, even if it feels crazy.

I have done sectional level and chapter interviews for FFA and been slated or given a position using these tips, and I know this helps me. Praying your interview goes good! 🫶
