Connecting Activities

Did you know..?

Practice talking about yourself before your interview. Actually talk out loud! It will help you be confident and comfortable, and it warms up your voice. This is especially important for phone interviews.

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts.” — Winston Churchill
