This video mock interview was a great experience. The questions were based on interview questions that a company can ask you and prepared you for a real interview. This mock interview was fun to do and taught me many lessons I can do in a real interview setting. To start off, I had to prepare for this mock interview. Some things I considered when preparing was to firstly, look at the questions and briefly go over my answers for each question. After that, I had to wear my best attire and adjust my camera and lighting. Lastly, I had to remind myself with some tips when doing this interview. Such as, making sure there was no distraction around, controlling my speed and most importantly adjusting my body language. However, there are some things …show more content…
I believe this was the best question I answered because I listed three important factors when trying to make the work environment positive. Also, I answered the question in a very logical, organized matter. I used transition words gave an example for each factor and at the end of my answer I repeated my three points. Out of all of my answers I used the most transition words in this question which makes it easier for the interviewer to follow along. Some points I felt were impressive was the examples I used to portray my strengths. Specifically, the example I used for my time management question. I described what the situation was, what I did to overcome the multiple tasks I had in hand. Furthermore, I described how I continued using an agenda to keep my time managed and organized. Another point I felt was impressive was my ability to use transition words during my answers. Due to the fact of using transition words my answers were organized and logical. Another, question I answered well was a behavioral question. Which was describe a situation where you went above and beyond your call of duty. My response to this question was followed by the STAR
education. Doing the interview, I had some target questions that I wanted ask. I asked the
First, by reading over my results it was very helpful to understand why I like putting others before myself, defending those who need it, and always serving others because I am the defender and that’s what 13% of the people around the world do. It is also helpful to understand why I am shyer and introverted because I put others before myself and I serve them. I also felt that by knowing what I am stronger at or weaker of so I know how to approach any situation in the future. The one thing that I found to be least helpful is that even though I know my negative traits, it will be very hard to break those habits because those qualities define who I am. Some of my most accurate responses were supportive, reliable, being a great family man and husband, caring, imaginative and observant, loyal, enthusiastic, hardworking and an admirable employee. Altogether, there was nothing that does not define who I am. These results for me were actually highly
The case scenario is of a homeless young guy named Jim who appears to have an intellectual disability. Jim is addicted to marijuana and abuses alcohol and has suicidal thoughts. He has anger control issues where he is known to verbally threaten others. He currently has a counsellor who he had established a therapeutic relationship. From these sessions, the counsellor has learned that Jim had been physically abused by his stepfather. From reading this case scenario about Jim, it is evident that he would benefit from several different approaches or interventions including motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioural therapy.
One important quote that stuck out to me while watching the KCTS9 interview was, “I had no idea that my small life could appeal to anybody”(15:03). This quote shows the Native American life by illustrating that their life can seem so small and they can feel as if they have no impact on the world. Which normally happens when you are in small Rez’s. One reason why I chose this quote is that it really shows how one can be not close with its heritage and all of a sudden realize that their culture can really make an impact on either another in the culture or even an impact on one's self. Secondly, because it proves how expanding your horizons can show you more about yourself and where you come from. Finally, I chose this quote because it shows you
What experiences have you had which prepare you for this position (e.g perhaps as an employee, leader, or working with people different from yourself, etc)?
During this interview I was unsure how to intervene with the client when they were going into such detail right away. I think that this is a skill I will need to continue to improve on. During the interview I used both closed-ended and open-ended questions to gain information from the client so I could get a better understanding of who they are as a person. After watching the film, I think that I could have conducted the interview better. I believe that I made a mistake by asking the client why they were there, before asking questions on their background. I think this made me back track on the client and made the beginning of the session a little awkward. This has allowed me to realize how I would like to
For the Global Tech simulation, we were arranged into groups with individuals we had not become acquainted with beforehand. Subsequently, there were no personal introductions or pre-class strategy meetings in preparation for our first class meeting on that Saturday. When the instructions were initially given and our simulation experience began, it was quickly realized, by the team that time was going to be of the essence. We immediately confronted the fact that there was no way we could watch all of the interviews provided in the simulation. After everyone had begun making mental and physical notes about the interviews we had already viewed, we collectively decided from there which interviews were going to be the most important for us to observe
Mrs. Vietti was the perfect candidate to observe and interview because she is still a leader in the classroom as well as a leader in a formal position. The biggest point that we discussed about leadership was attitude. She feels that having a positive attitude is the best way to display leadership. Thought he reading did not mention attitude much, I believe that a positive attitude can help build a community, which is one of the characteristics of a servant leader. In the science department, we are trying to rebuild the community from disputes that happened over the course of the past couple years. While we all teach different contents of science at different levels, one of the most helpful qualities that help us work together are the positive attitudes that come from most educators in the department. During my evaluation, one of the strengths that were notes was my positive attitude even when things do not go quite right. My attitude and willingness to work with other to build a community is my strongest servant leadership characteristic. I enjoy having close relationships with coworkers and discussing different techniques used in the
I was able to talk to my client without being visibly nervous. I am proud to say I handled my client’s problems as they came up without fear that I may say the wrong thing. In the first video, I found myself repeating things, for what reason I do not know. I can say my nonverbal skills need improving. One specific aspect of the interview was my hand gestures and motions. I really got involved with my client’s problems, and the way I tried to help her understand what I was saying and to get an understanding what she was saying, so I used my hands. I tried to keep by body in a position that would let the client know that I was using attentive listening skills. I cared about why she came to the facility for help. Each session, I adjusted my seat to make eye contact so my client could like she could trust me with her information and that I cared enough to listen to her
From the beginning, where we were unfamiliar with each other and became a team, my team and I had started to learn each other name and getting to know each other. Throughout each meeting, we slowly start to feel more comfortable and open minded with each other. Not only are we getting familiar with each other, each meeting that was held we progress of becoming an effective team member, we learn our strengths and weaknesses of everyone. During the meetings, we learn many concepts from the textbook, “Communicating in Small Groups: Principles and Practices” by Steven A. Beebe and John T. Masterson. We were able to learn different types of concept in the textbook and utilized it as a team to complete certain tasks. The three concepts that impacted my team and I are human
...allenged and successful. Our leader believed in our team and we believed in ourselves. I know I have learned from every work experience but I was so fortunate to work with such a strong and influential leader early in my career. It has created a lasting effect that I have learned from and tried to emulate.
... also convey a strong confidence in my ability to perform my job at a high level. Self-motivation is one of the traits that I put at the very top of any list of positive attributes.
I was not playing with my pen or smiling during the interview. I was able to look at my client and be professional about the situation that my client was trying to explain to me. The other things that I had notice about myself during the video was, I had lead forward toward my client and was actively listening to him. I was able to give him empathy not sympathy toward his issues. The whole time I did not feels that I was not able to speak freely because the client is my family member. During the first session I was trying so hard and I was thinking that I have to have all the solution to my client. Moreover, I was able to see make my client feel comfortable and share the issue that he had with his co-worker in dept. In the end my client feels that sometime it is okay to talk about things or topic that he is not interested in as long as he feels comfortable enough to have a conversation with other on the topic. The last thing that I have notice that I did that was not okay was touching or you say playing with my hair. I did not realized it until I saw myself on the
After doing the lesson, I felt that many things went well. According to the class evaluations and observation, the class really enjoyed the 4 different explore sound stations. The stations allowed for self-discovery, but were also structured enough for the teacher to have control. Classmates also liked the pictures that went along with the vocabulary terms. I think we did well with monitoring the students. We made sure the students were ready to continue to the next thing by having them give us “a thumbs up/ thumps down”. Lastly, I thought we did a great job at starting the lesson off strong with an engaging activity with the various sounds played from a cellphone app. It caught their attention and got them curious as to what
