-: If a student knows they're going to an interview
and there are gonna be several people on
the interview panel, always find out who
those interviewers are, write down the names,
and try to research those people
before you go into your meeting.
Utilize LinkedIn, because that's your number one
resource to learn as much as you can
about the people who you'd be meeting with.
There are several different types of interviews,
there's the one on one interview, which most of us
are used to, there's the panel interview,
which is where you'll meet with at least two,
or maybe more people, there's also a panel interview
where you're meeting with several interviewers,
or maybe one interviewer with several interviewees,
all at the same time, in maybe a public setting
or a round table.
Any type of panel interview can be nerve wracking,
I'd say the best way to prepare for those
is just know who your interviewer is,
and know everything that you can about yourself,
why you'd be the perfect person for the position.
