A headmaster is giving a speech about how to perform successfully in an interview to a new school.
Interviews are held so that you and the school can get to know each other.In that way you will possibly understand your questions better and get right answers on the day of the interview.
Read the school introductions and look at the school websites. Then think about yourself—your strong points and weak ones. Try to find a few examples you could give the interviewers.
What else do you want to tell the interviewer about yourself? These tell the interviewer what kind of person you are. Be ready to talk about why you enjoy them.
Dress properly on the day. Arrive a few minutes early. When you first meet the interviewer, greet him or her politely. First impressions (印象) are very important. You want the interviewer to think you are confident and friendly.
If you get nervous, take a deep breath to calm(使平静) yourself down. Listen to the interviewer with great care. Last but not least, at the end of the interview, don't forget to thank the interviewer and say goodbye.
I'm sure that you will do well in your interviews. Best of luck, boys and girls!
