Just a quick friendly reminder if you ever find yourself in a position where you’re like oh I don’t like her content or day she’s pillow talking I’m not sure the type of browser you’re using but there’s an X up there and just like you clicked in the video you can click out
My content is not for those who are and not interested in watching so if you’re not interested in watching but if you are one of those that are interested in my content thank you so much and stay here you know this is Russ I’m glad I’m glad you’re here what’s up y’all welcome
Back to my channel so today’s video is gonna be about how to ace the interview so this is gonna work for not only Greek life but also in your professional life so you never want to go into any situation like period if it’s professional is Greek life if it’s just
Literally going into a school like you don’t want to go into something not normal you’re doing so the first step is going to be recommending that you actually do some research and by research I mean like look who you’re likely to be talking to if you’re interested in an organization the first
Step is going to be looking into you know find out who the president is so when you’re seeing these people in the hallway you’re not completely blindsided like which one is the actual president which one is a vice president like if there is a method for you to figure out
Who’s who take advantage of it so research whatever it is that you’re trying to get into if you’re trying to you know get into a job make sure you’re researching the company find out you know what they’re all about if you’re researching an organization make sure that you know what these organization is
About know the key talking points know like stuff that’s available like online there was a simple Google search make sure you know stuff like that don’t fumble the ball if somebody asks you you know just in talking like what is the date that the organization was founded
And you don’t know it’s kind of like you know why are you here are you really interested in you know what we have to offer you so make sure that you’re kind of ahead of the game and knowing what to expect a little bit knowing the peoples
Know their faces so you can know this person is probably who I should be listening to or this person is probably going to ask questions too about any questions you know just certain small things like that they really do make all the difference another key point is to
Be confident in yourself everybody has things that they offer that are unique don’t always think that was the and maybe want to here is the right answer to the question that they’re asking so let’s say if somebody is asking you about you know what you like
To do don’t tell them that you like to knit and cook if you don’t know how to cook coordinate like if you’re actually interested in something different like normally on my resumes or actually on my resume now I have that I’m interested in like video design and graphic design
Because I do a little graphic design I have that I’m interested in doing t-shirts and things like that like stuff that actually um interests me so if they were to ask you a specific question about something that you’re interested in you can actually carry on a conversation regarding what it is that
You put that you’re interested in on your resume should they be looking at that or it’s just a general talking point period you know if you have something that you just are really passionate about something you really like have it as a selling point and also have a selling point about yourself
I even fumble with this quite a bit but you want to have talking points that way that um when you do go to talk and things like that if ask you you know tell me a little about yourself a lot of people fumble when it comes to that question that
Question can it is just so broad it can be asking you about like where you come from what you like to do things like that so kind of just have a spill you know no my name is shales Warner raisin or Louisiana I went to school that blah
Blah blah I’m currently at blah blah blah you know getting my law degree I’m a 3l um if you’re asking about you know things that you’re interested in you can say you know what you’re interested in and just different things like that if he’s taken any classes specific to
Whatever you’re interviewing for that’s cool if that’s not the type of interview that it’s about if it’s generally about like Greek life then you can kind of just kind of sum it up and just speak about yourself and think that you’re interested in just have some type of
Selling point so that you know kind of where you’re trying to go with it so you’re not like um you know kind of fumbling cuz when you’re when you add too much into it and you’re kind of seem like you’re overthinking it that’s kind of when you start to stray away from
Your you know natural self and start to kind of just pull stuff out of that area you’re making stuff up and that was just like for you just say you like underwater basket-weaving like what are you talk about prepare yourself for common questions that are typically asked you know even in other interviews
It’s very easy to Google interview questions if you have a person that you can kind of bounce this off of and to be the interview or do a mock interview do that if it’s just something that you could be confident in doing yourself if you can look like if you
Have to look at the mirror in duty or if you’re just confident in its kind of repeating it aloud to yourself a few times just to kind of make sure you’re comfortable and ready to say whatever anything cool you just make sure you take that time to actually practice so
That you’re not going in completely blind side if you haven’t gone an interview in in years then of course sometimes they may ask you questions that you’re not really prepared for so just kind of take a little time to stand back and say okay well let me go ahead and review this
Question or you know how should I answer what do I see myself doing in five years because if you’re looking for a Greek life it’s not necessarily relevant to Greek life it could be so if you’re looking like if you’re looking to join Greek life thing I mean your answer
Might not necessarily be relevant to what you plan to do in five years in relation to the Greek organization it might be um what you’re looking for your career and that’s again not assuming that the person is wanting to hear certain things you know you can still be
An individual and answer your questions honestly it’s figuring out what you want and figuring out how you want to portray yourself to this specific individuals so again you want to practice practice practice practice to make sure that you’re comfortable in your answers and grants it there probably will be some
Curveballs if you have to take a second to be like you know if they ask you something like okay will college this guy if you are not prepared to answer the question like right then and there if something doesn’t just you know automatically jump and see your hand you
Can take a second and say you know what color is this guy hmm you know repeat the question again and then that should give you a little time to kind of process it and think about what it is that you want to say prior to you saying it so you’re not fumbling and
Stuttering and saying oh and there’s a thank you like take a second to yourself you have to repeat the questions do that and they’ll understand like it doesn’t make you look less professional more or less prepared if you just you know taking a second to process and just say
You know um what color is the sky I think the color of the sky is like if you have to kind of rearrange the sentence a little bit to kind of you know prepare yourself a little bit or they’ll answer that you’re about to say
Take that time to do that you also want to come in kind of strong you don’t want to you want to make yourself a memorable want to make it to where that person on the opposite side of the table or that you know Committee on the other side of
Table actually remembers you because especially if you’re looking to join a Greek organization they’re gonna be seeing so many people throughout the day of course they’re gonna be taking notes here and there but you also want to just make sure that you leave a memorable imprint in their mind right you want to
Make sure that you’re just portraying yourself to be the best you that you can be you’re putting your best foot forward you’re not giving them any reason to say you know maybe she’s not right for this organization maybe I don’t know just something about her I don’t like like
You want to make sure that you’re giving them no reason to ever think negatively or down on you in again that goes with any profession someone actually told me recently my bar coach he said that in order to ace an interview if you’re interviewing once you’re finishing they
Just asked you do you have any last remarks or something like that he said to tell them like I am the best person for this position because blah blah blah and I think you know that could be a good thing as well I’ve never tried it yet because I haven’t been on a
Job interview since I saw him that was like two weeks ago but I think that could be something that would be beneficial with it it just kind of puts it in their brain like then he or she knows exactly what they want and they’re telling me why I should say where I
Should put the Mint’s position so that’s something that’s something to think about um think positively about yourself if you go in there and you’re feeling as if you’re not caught but people can feel when you’re not feeling confident about yourself it’s just something about like a person’s natural aura that kind of
Just makes it to where if you’re not feeling confident in yourself in that moment like it’s cool it’s obvious like we can see that we can feel it it’s just a look at your demeanor like the way that you’re like if you’re sitting with your back hunched in you know you’re
Looking down you’re not making eye contact if you can see that and they can feel it and so you want to make sure that you’re not doing that and when you are interviewing you want to kind of you know make eye contact with the interviewer be confident smile things
Like that so they can really feel that you know you’re I guess I want to say appreciative of the opportunity but like it’s a reciprocated like I don’t feel like I’m wasting my time being here so I hope you don’t feel like you’re wasting your time interviewing me as well and
You know it’s just it’s a peek more peaceful opportunity in a more peaceful environment for all parties involved close on a positive note don’t leave don’t let the situation in or the interview end with unsure tea or on a flatline grantee you’re not gonna know exactly the question that they’re gonna
End on I can’t tell your question is there no because it’s berries I mean I mean in my very from interview to interview I mean you might have somebody else in the room and their question might be different than what yours was so I mean it’s it’s like I even can’t
Tell anybody when like what type of questions they’re gonna be you know don’t so just make sure that every answer that you give is positive you know kind of you know almost like spunky but you know it’s a good answer that you will feel confident with ending with
Dress right if they tell you to wear a certain thing aware that when I was crossing for my interviews they told us to wear all black right literally just all black and so this go decided to come in and she had I want to say a red
Jackie with her um it wasn’t even cold I don’t think but she got a red jacket with her and she also had I want to say she had I’m like leopard shoes on like that they were cute but I mean in the day they told you to wear all black you
Were out like what you’re told they tell you what a business professional wear a business professional if they don’t have a color coat you know just Google something Google business professional and a lot will come up if they do sell you something specific what colors they
Say you to work black blue gray Brown you were black and gray brown whatever color they’re going to wear you wear that even which is regular interviews they show you like black gray blue brown those are like your go twos when it comes to business professional go ahead
Typically even just black in blue to be honest so we’re one of those colors and you should be fine so I hope this video helps you to understand a little bit about the whole interviewing process again everybody’s experience will be different I can’t tell you this is set in stone house
Me not so I just hope this kind of put it into perspective it makes it make sense if it does or even if it doesn’t go ahead and leave me some comments down below let me know what you’re thinking also go ahead and leave me a thumbs up already appreciated subscribe if they
