I remember my first job interview. It was a long time ago. I was very young and had yet to learn how to be true to myself.
I was trying to get a job for the summer in between undergraduate and graduate school, and remember thinking to myself: “Answer how they [my interviewers] want you to answer, no matter what.”
I got that job, and at first, I was thrilled. Once I began to do the work, however, I hated it. I couldn’t wait for the summer to end!
What could I have done better? How could I have given a better interview to get not just a job, but the job I wanted?
