First Interview Ever!!!

First Interview Ever!!!
 

This summer I'm going to volunteer at my local library soon and today they called us and said they are going to interview me tomorrow! I am really nervous :eek: I've never been interviewed before. I hope it all goes well and that I'm able to volunteer....

any advice?

I'm sure you'll be fine.
Just watch your body language a little. Be careful with waving hands, slouching on chairs (I know, I know...a little exagerated I admit). Nerves have a terrible way of getting the upper hand sometimes. :)

thanks for the advice :)

and yeah I learned about the body language and all that. I'll try my best :|

Just be yourself, following Ambarina's advise. :)

Yes, be yourself and don't forget your best smile. Look at the eyes of those who are talking to you, but don't do it too fix, as if you were a book, not a reader.

Advice-sustantivo Advise - verbo

Espero, Chileno, que no te importe que te haya corregido. Quizás es un caso de "dedos más rápidos que la mente" ;)

Exactly it. I am thinking of something but my fingers have a mind of their own. :-)

:D

Thanks.

right this moment I'm at my library very soon i will be having my interview! Wish me luck! I hope I won't die!

Good luck, jchen! :butterfly:

that was quick I'm back already :)

And what about? Did you feel too nervous?

I wasn't that nervous. she asked me what my personality was like and all that and why I was interested in volunteering.

I was going to offer good luck; didn't realize this thread was started yesterday! :) I'm sure you did fine; and the best part is, in the future you'll know what to expect.

Tell us about the interview and your feelings. :-)

In Spanish if possible.

lol why in Spanish? It has nothing to do with Spanish :P and I haven't learned how to say things about interview in Spanish...:P

okay let me sort it out and when I'm ready I will tell you about the interview..

Menos risitas y vamos al grano. :-) :D

Why "I wasn't that nervous", I'd have said: "I wasn't so nervous". If you mean "no estaba tan nerviosa".

Correcto, solo que yo tomo lo que jchen dijo como: " no estaba ni tan nerviosa", en todo caso la manera americana es usar el that en vez del so. :)

I want to know the outcome of the interview!! When will you know?

En este caso son intercambiables. Por lo menos en UK puedes decirlo de las dos maneras con el enfasis de la frase recayendo sobre el "so" o el "that".
