At the interview
Bring a portfolio/resume, names addresses, phone numbers of references, identification
Questions – open-ended – talk about yourself
Be prepared to ask questions to the interviewer – don’t ask about money, vacation, etc…

Open ended and close ended questions
What is the difference? Closed ended questions can be answered
with a simple yes or no answer. Lead no where
Open ended questions encourage the interviewee to expand about themselves or how they feel about something. Thought Provoking
I need a volunteer
