Sample questions:


    Tell me about your educational background

    How has your college / school experience prepared you for a career?

    What was your biggest challenge as a student, and how did you handle it?


Sample answer:

I just graduated from the ABC University with high honors. I majored in journalism there, and had the opportunity to write for and edit the school newspaper. I volunteered to be a tutor at my university’s writing center during my senior year. We offered free help to all students in their writing.

 

The biggest challenge for me during college was that I had to work full-time, around my studies, in order to pay for my college fee. This meant that I didn’t have a lot of free time at night or on the weekends to do anything other than study, but it also allowed me to graduate debt-free, with a 3.75 GPA.


6.Questions about your work experience

Sample questions:

1.Tell me about your work experience?

2.Have you completed any internships?

3.What did you gain from the experience?
