      Make sure to research which programs you study with. I have heard of some programs have relocated kids and put many Asian students in areas that had high hate crime rates. We shouldn’t support a program that supports anti-Asian hate. Please stop Asian hate! So please make sure to research before you go!

    Thanks very much, this really helped. In 2024 I’m applying to ASSE since I’d like to go to Korea. But I’m applying for a scholarship since my family can’t afford the price. So definitely going to be a lot of competition. (They only except 1 person per year in each area) Wish me luck!

You're going to great this week - just focus on communicating how adaptable you are, use brief examples to sell your best qualities, remember that the interviewers want you to succeed, and have fun.

    • @almostaustin
      @almostaustin  4 роки тому +9

      Hey Claire! I certainly hope they won't all just stare at you! haha. So in my experience, the worst they will do is carefully observe while you respond to questions or situations. I completely understanding feeling nervous... but don't worry, the actual interview won't be scary at all. The good news is, which you should keep in mind, is that the people running the interview WANT you to succeed. It's not cut-throat or super critical like it would be in an interview for a competitive career position, this is a student exchange program and that is often reflected in the attitude of the interviewers.

      @almostaustin  3 роки тому +5

      Hey! Hmmm... Everyone has a diffirent perspective, so I obviously can't speak on behalf of the opinions of the specific people you will be interviewing with. However, the people I have worked with in the past regarding interviews, their concern has been with the effort put in to dress professional and what that effort represents, not necessarily what style was being worn. I hope it's not the case, but there is always the risk someone on the panel is less progressive when it comes to traditional gender stereotypes, so that could be a consideration if you're on the fence about a decision. Either way, best of luck!
