Mock Interview Reflection
Overall, I think my mock interview went pretty well. I had practiced with two of my roommates before going into the mock interview, and although they work in different fields that are not related to healthcare, I think the practice was helpful because I was forced to think on the spot. I was expecting more questions related to who I am and my experiences rather than my long-term plans and goals. I also was surprised that I was asked more questions about my expectations and priorities in a job than I was asked about my qualifications. In the future, I will prepare better for those types of questions about my expectations. I also learned that even though I didn’t specifically prepare for those questions, I was still able to come up with answers on the spot for those questions. I think it is important to self-reflect often to be aware of who you are, what you want, and what is important to you.
