week 4: interpersonal and technical skills

When you enter an interview there are 2 important skills you will need. collaboration and communication skills. The employer wants to make sure he doesn't encounter any ad hominems from you while working with them. Can you work long term with them? Allot of the time its not just about the final product but the whole progress instead. Your collaboration and communication skills are just as important as your technical skills.

I haven't been through many interviews myself and some I wish I was more relaxed at. Whats the worst that could happen? Not getting the job? Sometimes the employer/recruiter would make it easy and ask you an informal or random question to get you to relax and present yourself naturally. Though they may seem random those questions serve a purpose. Seeing how you'd work in high stress conditions and how you communicate solutions. Lateral thinking.
