For September 30

For 9:00 am, Thursday, September 30:

Below are several videos by Brian Krueger about interviewing. An interview is form of "presenting." Notice the way Brian moves his hands and the way he pauses, stretches and emphasizes words.

You choose 6 of them and provide a brief summary of them, emphasizing any new words that you might not have known before. An example is given below. Email me your 6 summaries before 9 am on Thursday, September 30 at english@sejong.ac.kr

1. Tell me about yourself
2. Eye Contact
3. First Steps
4. IQ and EQ
5. Power of the Pause
6. Passion
7. Interviewing Clue
8. Clothing at an Interview
9. Sound Bites
10. Overcoming Nervousness

Example:
A Non-Verbal (Smile)



A Non-Verbal: The most important "non-verbal" (non-spoken)indication of who you are is your smile. Most people are unaware of this at all. Brian suggests that we take a good long look at your face in the mirror, especially your smile. You should try to develop a warm and genuine smile. You don’t need to keep that smile "plastered" (painted) on your face. Just "come back to it" (do it again) from time to time during the interview.

Don't merely repeat what he says. Summarize.
