Preparation for the Interview
 I’m going to interview a female student
 She is 24 years Old and lives in Chile
 This is her last year of Business
Engineering
 She is looking for an Internship to get
finished her studies
Before the Interview
I don´t have a recording of the Interview so
this is mostly a transcript of the whole
Interview.
The Interview was given by a person who I
know really good, so the answers were
given with confidence.
The topic of our Interview is:
“Future Career Goals”
The Interview
Me: Hi
Her: Hi
Me: You are about to graduate. Do you
feel nervous to enter the Job Market?
Her: I feel anxious and nervous at the
same time. During my studies they
prepared us to find a Job and I am giving
my best to do so.
The Interview (2)
Me: Do you pretend to go on studying,
after graduating?
Her: Yes, I think only a Undergrad degree
today isn’t enough, it’s important to
specialize.
Me: Why do you think so?
Her: Society in muy opinion requieres
more specialized engineers, who want to
learn every day.
