I had a job interview this week. I dressed professionally, and wore these!



I think the interview went well. It was for a sales coordinator position, which means I wouldn't sell anything but that I would help the sales staff with proposals and ideas for clients. So I think I could totally do this job. They asked me to tell them about myself, my strong points and weaknesses. They asked about my computer skills and I answered honestly, that there is room for improvement. So to makes the sales proposals for the sales staff I would need to use power point, and they asked if I had ever used power point. Nope sure haven't, but I have no doubt I could learn and learn quickly. At the end of the interview they asked me to make a mock proposal, and they gave me 15 minutes. I made the proposal on both word, which I am familiar with, and power point, which I am not familiar with. I think that was really good for me to do that and that it showed I was a quick thinker and that I am not afraid to try something new. As I was walking out, I was complimented on my shoes......

Over all I think it went well.

If the ladies who interviewed me remember nothing else about me, they will remember my shoes. I see that as a plus!

Wow, kudos to you for being brave enough to wear shoes like that. I am sure the stuffy books full of interview tips would advise against but I am all for being yourself and looking like you would once you do land the job. Hope you get it.
