Online Interview Experience

Yesterday I had the opportunity to do a mock interview with my partner Leanne over google hangouts. I thought it was a good experience, if a bit on the redundant side. We had just done mock interviews the day before in class and so I felt that Leanne and I were asking each other the same questions. It was nice because I had good answers prepared for her, but I also felt that it didn’t challenge me to become a better interviewee.  Leanne and I had a good chat and it was definitely a comfortable environment and we didn’t feel awkward. We were able to take the mock interview seriously. I felt we both gave good answers. It was good practice to interview someone in a safe environment, but I also feel it would be beneficial to have a list of really challenging questions. This would help people not to be caught so off-guard when they are asked tough interview questions in real life. This assignment was a good foray into the interviewing world, and overall I thought it was a good experience.
