Interview Question 36
Advice
This again is a fairly simple question with a fairly straight forward answer to it. Remember at all times in interview you must stay positive. Failing to stay positive will result in firms unnecessarily considering you to have negative thoughts. Negative thoughts in interview indicates someone who may be overly critical of both themselves and others or perhaps they do not make the most of their opportunities. For example if you did not enjoy university and you tell an interviewer so, why have you not enjoyed it? The answer will always be that any lack of enjoyment would be self-inflicted because there is so much to do at university you really have no excuse for not enjoying your time there. If something happened in your personal life that affected your time at university this again does not need to be disclosed to the interviewer.
