Interview Skills Worksheet: Types of Interviews
Tip (Know what they look for): Admission interview: “Why this college?”, “Why this course?”, “Which subjects did you enjoy?” — they look for interest and fit. Scholarship interview: “How will this help your studies?”, “Why do you need support?” — they look for need, plans and commitment. Job or internship interview: “When can you start?”, “Are you free for shifts?”, “How would you handle an angry customer?” — they look for reliability. In a panel, answer the asker and glance at all.
