Interview advice by Olechka / Erica Bukina (I think)

DON’T YOU DITCH YOUR INTERVIEW!

In the course of this hectic thing called ‘life’ all of us are faced with the problem of Selling Ourselves -- sooner or later, you’d have to squeeze Your Unique Personality into that boOoring obnoxious three-piece office-style suit and spill your guts out trying to convince some mean-looking person that YOU ARE THE PERFECT ONE.

Whether Immigration, or Job Search, or Making a Marriage Proposal, or Applying for a Bank Loan – you’d have to prove your credibility, good will and whatever else it takes to make them love you.

In such tense yet crucial situations most of us don’t hit the bull’s eye from the first try, and gain an extensive yuffie* experience over some years, which might prove hazardous to the well-being of the nervous system.
