After graduating from high school, I attended college and worked a couple of part-time jobs.” b) “I enjoy helping people and this drives my desire to master the art of fundraising.

The purpose of an interview is: a) to match employees with the employer that best suits them, and vice versa. b) for the job candidate to talk about his achievements. c) for the employer to test the interviewee by asking tricky questions.
a) match candidates with the employer that best suits them, and vice versa. This is the correct answer. The real purpose of an interview is for the employer to see which candidate is the best fit for the company. The candidate also needs to see if this is an employer he would like to work for. This is why both interviewer and interviewee need to ask each other questions. An interview isn’t the time for candidates to simply talk about themselves. To find out if they would like to work for a certain employer, they should try to find out more about the employer as well. The interviewer’s goal isn’t to trick the candidate, even though some interview questions may be hard. The interviewer’s goal is to find out what a candidate is like in person and find the best fit for the open position

What’s the safest thing to wear to an interview, if you cannot find out anything about the company’s dress code? a) A suit. b) A collared shirt and khakis. c) A comfortable t-shirt and jeans.
a) A suit. This is the correct answer. A suit is the safest choice because it’s better to be overdressed than underdressed. For women, either a pants suit or dress suit would work. Dressing nicely shows that you are respectful towards the interviewer and the company. It demonstrates that you care about this interview and wish to make a good impression. A collared shirt and khakis are permissible if you know more about the company’s environment and think a more laidback look would fit in well. Avoid wearing a t-shirt and jeans.
