Please do not be afraid to be interviewed, I can tell you that it is never as hard as you might believe it to be in your mind. Recently, I was interviewed and I collected the interview to share with you because I think it can help you in your next interview. The important thing is just to relax and talk in a conversational way.
You should not worry too much about what you are going to say if asked a certain question, as much as just being yourself and relaxing. Here is a sample interview where I was asked some questions about my online writing endeavors. Read them and see why it is so important to relax and take it easy and be your self.
1.) So how do you get to have time to write so many articles?
Just started writing one day, trying to data-dump all this knowledge from all the things I have done, so I do not forget them and to make sure all that experience benefits others too. So far it has come to 4 million words?
2.) You have some bizarre number of articles next to your name on Ezine Articles.
I have stopped at 11,111 because I like that number one.
3.) I mean anybody with that sort of writer's skills must be superman??
That is so funny; I am not a good writer at all. I am very good at many many things, but not at writing.
4.) What inspires you?
I am not inspired to write in any way. I just got bored in retirement, too much energy. I think too much, I cannot write fast enough.
5.) You must truly have the ability to put words together very quickly.
Not sure, I think in terms of pictures, visual, so when trying to describe stuff; it simply takes up a lot of words?
6.) What would you want out of life at this stage, the place you are at right now?
I do not have any wants that I know of, I have done a lot.
7.) I get the feeling you might be a touch of an over achiever?
Mom was an Olympic Caliber Swimmer, Dad was a Fighter Pilot "Tom Gun" type and I have one hell of a genetic line of people just like them and me. I guess I really did not have any choice, in hindsight it makes perfect sense now.
8.) What would you say drives you that hard?
I like to win, solve complex problems, accomplish stuff, beat the odds and enjoy the journey. Thus, I often accept any challenge or problem and fear none. Hey, come on, everyone has to have a job in society right? That's mine. I self appointed my self, because no one else seems to care enough, try as hard or want to address the real issues.
So, in case I am needed, I will be studied up and ready to rock and roll. Until then, I am your friendly observer reminding everyone to look in their mirror before promoting chaos and controversy to no avail. Those were some fun questions, but what about you?
