One especially challenging hurdle for many people is the interview process. I know some of us get super excited when we apply for a job or placement and are selected for an interview, but then we get nervous. In this episode, we asked some of you guys about what your biggest fears are when it comes to doing interviews. Plus, we got expert advice on how to mitigate these fears, from a George Brown Placement Coordinator, Ana Vukelic. Tune in to find out what other George Brown students have to say and what you can do to have a successful interview!
