Interview Analysis

           On Thursday August 27,2015, I interviewed for a position as a sales and marketing associate for Pick it Sweets and Treats.  My interview went well.  I was prepared for the questions that were asked, and I was calm.  I was nervous, as it was my first ever interview, but I was collected enough to speak clearly.  My posture was very good, and I walked with confidence.  Additionally, I was very honest in my answers.  The highlight of my interview was the chart that I included in my portfolio.  I did, however make a few mistakes.  At first, my answers were a bit choppy, but they improved as the interview continued.  I did move around a lot, for example swiveling in the chair.  I made a few vocalized pauses in my responses, and I should have spoke a little louder.  I also could have been a bit more energetic when answering. Hopefully, these problems will be improved by the time we do mock interviews on mock interview day.  All-in-all, I am confident that I got the job as a sales and marketing associate at the Pick-it Sweets and Treats company.
          I believe that the company has a good standing this year.  Last year, the company had some problems in communicating and the website, but I am sure these problems will be solved.  Many of the employees are returning to the company, so they will have more experience in each of their fields of the company.  Although I am new to the company, I believe that I can stay on task and do all of my duties in order to keep the company focused on our goals.  I am confident that we will be able to make it to the state finals if we try hard and focus on our work.
