A lot of people are gonna probably be right well when I say this one cuz y’all gonna be like why would she tell me to do that yes but pay close attention anyone and just anyone right here that I’ve got it out went way back naturally you believe it doesn’t break but with
Doc scan table drops out and awesome hands be buddies I could wonder if there nothing else hey so Jim welcome back to my channel if you’re new my name is samaya go ahead and subscribe to my channel right now if you have it and give this video a thumbs
Up while you’re here if you read the title you already know why you’re here if you are interested in joining a sorority I some of these rules can apply to fraternities as well but this will be specifically about sororities and specifically about the divine nine so if
You are interested in joining a sorority this is a video that you should probably watch you made it to the point where you did all your research you’ve narrowed it down and then you decided what you want to be you decided what you want to pledge so at this point you are now
Getting ready to go to the interest meeting more informational they’re both the same thing but they kind of very distant own like whiskey causing multipliers but entertaining and informational are the same things you what they are is basically transferring information about the organization to meet the members of the chapter on your campus
Person to ask any questions that you may have and introduce yourself as well as run out the requirement to join that particular sorority and then you condemning decision is well the final decision if that is something that you absolutely want to do and based on the requirements given to you then you can
Apply so the informational slice interest meeting is one of the final steps to making the decision of joining med sorority so we’re going to get started and today I’m going to flip this up into three major categories what to wear what Springs and what to do
So Rina start off with what to wear now this can vary depending on what organization you’re joining which campus you go to etcetera less than general west where’s our where neutral colors one you don’t want to show up in the sororities colors because that’s what
They were wear and you kind of want to stand out and be different we don’t want to try to match them because you’re not part of that group so we’re neutral colors you know earth tones black white tan gray that sort of thing and you want to wear it business
Attire so you want to dress like you would dress for a interview not at McDonald’s but like if you go to an interview I like McDonald’s you just like kind of more like business casual they want to just like you’re going to exist interviews for like corporate
America or you’re going to go see a judge or something like that that’s how you want to dress you want to have neat and tidy air so you want to make sure that your hair is not in your face it’s not unkept you want to make sure that
It’s just you know very neat and the tidy and professional-looking you also want to make sure that you don’t have on any excessive makeup this look I have today aunt to let this bright pink lipstick is definitely not what you want to do maybe a nice lip
Gloss or a nude colored lip or something just a little bit lighter toned but you don’t want to do anything too expensive you’re not going to the club this is not a party you’re not going to someday thing this is and this is like an interview before
The energy basically so you want to make a good impression for your first impression so um no big jewelry these earrings would not work this choker would not work you can wear a studded necklace something small you don’t want anything big or bulky Gus I don’t want
Huge dangling earrings um does it work or you can go with no jewelry pearls or even better but yes so no huge jewelry no big earrings anything like that if you’re going to wear a dress or skirt always wear tights or stockings underneath them you want to dress how
Your grandmother would basically say like you want to church and can you sleep under that’s very high you very much like alert you wear your skirt without a tie so that’s how you want to go to the informational if wear dress or skirt definitely wear hype and then
Always check the flyer for special instructions depending on the organization they might expect you to wear heels no flat you know depends on the organization they might want you to all wear black or gray or something like that another or of a jacket like a
Blazer so um you know it just depends on the organization so therefore always make sure that you read the flyer once twice three times / double-checking before using the house and just be prepared so now we’re going to move on to what to bring so as far as
What the brain it’s a pretty short list you don’t want to bring too much if you want to just bring yourself and be able to have your hands-free to participate and enjoy your time but you also want to meet professionals but you want to bring things that will put you in a
Professional life that will make you shine above others as well as just showcase what you have to offer so some of the things that you can bring well first before you bring anything always check the flyer for special instructions which I just said about the the dressing you want to check the flyer
For special instructions about what to bring as well because some of them may say bring an official transcript at that point you have to order those if you if you go to my school I’m Curt like that other schools too you have to go and order an official transcript you can’t
Just print those off and a lot of times they take between five and seven business days so you have to order them ahead of time and pay for them so therefore you want to make sure that you read the flyer we want you to bring an official transcript be prepared and
Official transcripts also means to not open the envelope they have to be completely filled so and they have to come from University so therefore you want to resupply er to make sure that you can bring either a official or unofficial unofficial transcript is something that you can print off
Yourself from your pool of your personal school ID website thing whatever and that does not have to be filled an envelope and unofficial so you can print that off the day of if you want to so you just want to know what they’re expecting from you but unofficial
Transcript most of the time will do and you also want to bring your resume so with your resume you should have people type summers we should have like a work resumes I have like a academic resume which I mean I do so basically it’s because you’re doing two different
Things your academic resume is the one that you should use for your already interest so that should include any of your extracurricular activities your grades and you accolade scholarships honors volunteer work that you do anything like that that should be included in your resume and you can include work experience if the work
Experience for the leadership role that would make more sense than to just be like I work that blue skater if you were a manager at solute theater then you should include that valves immense resonator because you know special cases your leadership skill so definitely bring your resume if you have one adult
Make sure you have one be prepared and the next thing is this pretty important you want to bring either a no card like a single note card or a small notepad and thing you want to be prepared to take notes because they’re going to be saying a lot of things and they’re not
Going to have pamphlets for you to take home what’s the notes of everything they say so they’re going to be talking about possibly they’ll talk about dudes they’ll talk about the requirements and things like that and you’re going to want to write that stuff down because you try to do it by
Memory then you might mess yourself up and really your chef is going to forget something so a lot of information to take in so make sure that you write that information down on the condo card or toe pad and take the information with you so that way you have it the last how
Do we that we’re doing is weapons and this is the biggest category because this is the one that most people don’t really know what to expect when they go through information do not be nervous for one informational is literally not the interview there’s always interviews after the informational if you get to
That part so therefore it’s more select an introduction is to get the information and anybody lots of informational can apply even if you don’t qualify I don’t recommend that I recommend only apply and you qualify but anybody is well today from can apply to the sorority so therefore
It is not the end-all be-all so don’t be nervous the first thing is be yourself that’s really important yes you want to put your best foot forward yes would be the best you you can be and be the best first impression that you can be button
To be yourself don’t be anybody but who you are you want to show your true characteristics so that they can determine if they want you to be part of that you want the honest truth the next thing is smile and be open you don’t have to be super giddy giddy but be
Friendly don’t sit in the corner and look you know intimidating or like you know you’re afraid to smile because you don’t want to look like you’re too busy of course you’re too interested you have interest meetings that’s the point so smile be happy just you know be happy
Be looks like you are in the process of making one of the best decisions that you like get upset the next one is participate in have fun usually at these informational that we’ll have like a icebreaker something just because a lot of the girls are definitely nervous to
Make some for someone who’s been on both sides of the field I know what it’s like and you know a lot of times people come in and they’re really nervous especially if they don’t really know anyone they just are shy so you don’t want to be that person participate kind of make
Yourself get out of your shell in the beginning the icebreaker usually happens in the beginning so try to get out your shell in the beginning if you come in shy that’s okay participate in the icebreaker make them friend next to you that’s your neighbor or something heck you never know they might get
Picked along with you and then it becomes your sister just you know participate the next one is do your due diligence do your research you want to make sure that you research the organization before you go do not go to an interest meeting expecting to find
Out everything that you want to know the interesting is not for then that’s what your personal research is for you can ask questions but you cannot don’t fit there and ask questions that and final Google don’t ask questions that you know you should already know the answer to so that just makes you
Look bad and makes you look like you didn’t do your research and makes it look like you don’t know the decision that you’re trying to make like you just don’t you don’t really care off to much and it’s just really annoying because it’s kind of like you could you could
Like look that up yourself so therefore do your research you know ahead of time and the next one is prepare questions for Q&A ahead of time at the end of every informational there’s always a Q&A it is an opportunity for you to ask the chapter members of the organization that
You tried to join question and I recommend that you ask more questions about the chapter rather than the Rory as a whole you can ask questions about the sorority but like I said a lot of that stuff can be found online so if you ask a question about the sorority make
Sure it’s not something you found online a good question to ask is like you want to ask them about some of their initiatives like online you can find some of their initiatives but you want to ask about some other ones like that or you can even ask much specifics about
Amount of initiatives like if they are really big in March of Dimes you want to ask them you know how long have you guys took a stand with marches on and how is that impacting your life personally in rap stuff like that or you want to ask a
Personal question like what made you join the sorority you know what was something that stood up to you that made you want to join what changed your life after you did you know you want to ask personal questions you can ask the chapter itself you know as a chapter how
Do you guys bond together as sisters as a chapter what is some of the what are some community service projects that you guys take one that not necessarily the organization I want you know questions like that you just want to be you want to ask questions that are out of the box and
Prepare ahead of time you don’t want to get in there and try to think of something off your dome because a lot of times you will think of something really basic and you know it’s just a waste of a question you know you want to think of something that really is
Thought-provoking makes them really excited to answer that question for you and gives you a and to the chapter rhythms as well because that’s the trap that you’re trying to join and the reason why you should prepare questions is because it makes you stand out it gives you a slight edge above other
People when you ask the question you know if it’s a roomful of 150 girls 20 girls no matter if it’s a room full of girls and on Fox last question those five people their faces are remembered because they stood up and they ask the questions into fun
Wow you know they came prepared or wow they’re really interested they really want to know more they want to learn so definitely prepare questions that’s really really important the next one is introduce yourself completely during the Q&A portion especially or also the icebreakers that they ask everybody stead of introduce
Yourself don’t do no wack introduction and be like hey my name is Maya what’s up and then that’s it no no no oh and don’t be like okay you know you wanna you want to stand up I’m not going to stand up because then I’ll be out of
Camera but you want to stand up and you want to say hi my name is samaya Hodges you know first to last name and you want to say you know I’m from Oakland California I am a whatever years you are I’m a senior majoring in let’s say architects
I’m a general fan so let me use somebody else’s inspiration so hi my name is Ashley Johnson I am from Tennessee I am a junior architect major and my question is wherever your questions that’s how you do what you want to have confidence you want to protect your boys
You want to introduce yourself fully as Ben after question then you actually questioned in a class okay just one prayer is a question but I’ll know her name was where she first what the name she goes here what’s amazing you know you want to fully introduce to let them
Know who you are so next one is be confident but not arrogant okay smile be confident and you are one of those people who are absolutely not shy you just like I know everybody in the room I was good that’s fine you know know everybody all you want to but that does
Not mean your shoe is those do not carry yourself like you think that you got this in the bag just because you know everybody and you know you can carry yourself with confidence and be like I’m excited to be here I know my words but don’t don’t carry yourself with this
Arrogance like I know that about the picked me I’m in like I’ll need to ask no questions I don’t need to participate if they know what’s good for them I’m in don’t do that and there’s a last one and this was a really important and a lot of people
Are going to probably be like wow when I say this pajama be like why would she tell me to do that with but pay close attention because there’s a message to my badness okay do not do not sit next to your friend if your friend is interested in the organization with you
That’s fine but do not sit next to this fit somewhere else the next to the strangers we don’t know why I will use the real one you don’t want to look like the only reviewer trying to join it’s because hey I know somebody else will trying to join
We could do it together because we’re besties you want to look like you made that decision on your own accord with nobody else’s influence and that you’re doing it for the right reasons and not just because your homegirl is doing it you also don’t want to sit next to your
Friends because even though that show friend and you love her to death maybe she does some things that are questionable maybe her credentials are not you know what they need to be maybe she is not going to be chosen and then you have linked yourself to her like lock in the
Key and now you are looped together in the same category because you act like you are hung at the hip and y’all can get away from each other so now you know where would your chances because her chances are off so you’re next to her and y’all can just you know we can’t
Separate jobs oh okay say one without the other y’all a package deal so the package is telling me I’m it says return to sender the whole package for us to go back so sit by yourself hang by yourself because your self is all the person who have to go through the interviews your
Cell phone prints left ok them do your self is the only person’s got to join the organization and be part of our sisterhood now if you and your friend both get something great but y’all gotta sit next to each other to do it if the obvious choices that’s awesome y’all can
Be sisters forever if doctors did next to each other in the chapter meetings how about that so that is it for this video you guys I hope that it was really informative and that you guys enjoyed watching with me yeah if you guys want more videos like this please leave a
