Know Yourself
blank image
blank image blank image

1.  Have a firm understanding of your needs/wants for a job, work environment, coworkers, boss, etc.

2.  Review your resume. Have knowledge of skills, abilities, and accomplishments, and be ready to elaborate on them.

3.  Review and be able to discuss your five greatest: skills, interests, values.

4.  Be prepared for questions about your strengths AND weaknesses. Consider how you might turn a weakness into something positive about yourself. Perhaps note a skill that is desirable but that you haven't fully developed. Above all, be yourself and don't dwell on your weaknesses. Show that you know what is required to do the job and that you can strengthen areas which need improving.
