Media Industry-My Mock Interview

Mock Interview

 Interviewer feedback - I am happy to see you want to bring your personal identity and uniqueness to your projects - it shows you want to show your personal attributes and this will make your work stand out. You showed that you are open to progression and open to challenges that may come along in the future. You showed that you were top in progression in some of your roles which is impressive. You were open to your weakness which was time management and had a clear plan of how to improve on this skill in the future. You specifically spoke about equality and diversity with Channel 4 which is great to see that you’re open to inclusion in the industry and that this is something that you’re passionate about. You were also able to describe a time you worked in a team and how you dealt with this challenge showing your problem-solving skill.

My feedback-From watching my interview, I am happy with the way I talked about my skills and progression in my other roles. I was able to talk confidently about what channel 4's ethos was and why I thought it would be good for me to work there.
I felt like I could've spoken more confidently and held myself better to show more confidence, however, I feel like I was slowly starting to do that as I got more comfortable with the interviewer. This is something i am hoping to improve on next time I am doing an interview.
