Nov 4 - Education?

"Tell me about your education"

Things we talked about --

  • Why did you choose this university?
  • Why did you choose this major?
  • What was your minor (or second major?)
  • What subjects/classes did you enjoy the most/least?
  • Extra-curricular activities?
  • Why were your grades not so great? (GPA less than 3.2)

We want to try to include answers to these kinds of questions -- these could be questions asked of us, but if they ask a general question, we want to try to include these ideas.

Speaking --

  • Positive (not humble, not negative)
  • Active (not "prof gave me an A" but "I earned an A")
  • Strong (loud and confident, not too quiet)

Remember that in a Type A (Korean based) interview you will be more like Korean culture, but in a Type B (Global based) interview you want to be "++" for these items. (In speaking Korean, you might be "-" for these three speaking items.

INTERVIEW QUESTION TO PREPARE for next meeting --
What's the best way to learn?
