'Move the X-Box, I?m Interviewing' Dorm Room Interview Practice will Help Smooth out Rough Spots When it Comes Time for the Real Thing, Says Online
New York, NY (PRWEB) April 10, 2008 -- Creating a mock interview space in a college dorm room or off campus apartment that simulates an across the desk meeting can help you land the job or internship you want says Robert Graber, founder of WallStJobs.com (http://www.wallstjobs.com). ?Even if it means having to clean up a space cluttered with clothing, books, or pizza boxes, setting up a faux-office will help put you in the correct mindset.?
Graber suggests that students alter the traditional ?desk-against-wall? layout to allow for the more traditional interview scenario of being seated across the desk from an interviewer. ?Many students are initially uncomfortable with making eye contact and sitting upright,? said Graber. ?By creating this environment, students can begin to hone their skills.?
?College career offices have typical interview questions for the type of position you are interested in,? said Graber, ?so get a copy of these and have your roommate or a friend sit behind the desk and ask you these questions. Repeat the process until you are able to answer each question comfortably and with a minimum of ?likes? and ?you knows.? Make eye contact and don?t fidget.?
Graber also suggests the following:
- Wear interviewing clothes (Is that collar too tight? Buy a new shirt!) - Assume the role of interviewer at least once (What things do you find distracting from a candidate? Learn from others.) - Consider organizing others in the dorm and use a common area for the mock office (It will be larger and you won?t have to clean up your own room!)
?The interview is the make or break moment,? said Graber. ?By devoting time to developing your ability to handle this critical situation, you will be enhancing your chances of getting a job offer. When you have written your thank you notes and accepted the position, you can move the desk back against the wall and congratulate yourself on a job well done.?
