Dear all.

It's been only few months that I finished ESP, and I wanted to say to you that I MISS it already, especially with a teacher like Luiza. My recommendation for the new group is to USE this class, this teacher in maximum, about every little thing, because in this class you can be exactly what you are without feeling uncomfortable.

Best wishes...
Yours, Erinda!

Job interview! Helpful tips

A job interview can be the hardest things to do in your life, but also can be the easiest if you know how to deal with it and if you know what to do before, how to dress appropriately. You should make sure you’re prepared to make the very best impression you can, to help you land that perfect job! For that I am going to list some rules and tips.


Before the interview:
You should RESEARCH THE COMPANY (To find as much as possible information, so in case of asking something about the company you know what to answer! )

Write a LIST OF Common QUESTIONS (And prepare them good.) 

Write Questions to ask The Interviewer (So he’ll know that you are really interested to get the job)

BE PREPARED (Bring copies of your resume, references, samples of work, CV.)

Get A GOOD NIGHT SLEEP (You don’t want to sit though the entire interview and wishing you are in the bed! )

RELAX (If you are a nervous type, this should be higher on your list. You should do things that you like, ex. Music, Taking a Bath, Walking, etc.)

EAT SOMETHING (Rumbling stomach is a natural reaction for the body but even a natural thing no one wants to hear your stomach making this noise while you are both in the middle of an interview. Make sure you eat something and wash your stomach with a glass of water.)

ARRIVE EARLY! (Make sure when you arrive to be polite with the secretary and the employers around. It’s good to arrive 10 minutes early.)

Dress To Impress! 

Women: Make sure that whatever you choose looks Smart and Professional.
  •  NO MINISKIRTS – NO LOW CUT TOPS! (This won’t create the image you are looking to create.)
  • Go for A TUBE black skirt, Classic ones. 
  • Nude, White, Navy shirt/blouse.
  • Your shoes should be classic one or two inches high. 
  • A small Purse.
  • Hair should be clean, better to wear it back so it won’t distract.
  • Light MAKE-UP!
  • USE only a little PERFUME.

MAN:
  • Suit (Solid color - navy or dark grey)
  • Long sleeve shirt (White or coordinated with the suit) 
  • Tie Necessary!
  • Conservative leather shoes (Dark socks)
  • Portfolio or Briefcase.
In the end don't forget to LOOK AT YOURSELF IN A MIRROR! :)
