The Job Interview and Your Mindset
A successful interview occurs as the result of meaningful interactions, which happens when you are prepared, confident, and self-assured. You are communicating effectively during the interview and clearly articulating who you are, what you offer, and what you are seeking for your career.
The process of preparing for a job interview may involve a time of stress, indecision, and self-doubt. It is important to understand the origin of your doubts and fears so that you are fully in control of your thoughts, reactions, and emotions. This article will provide tips and techniques for developing a positive mindset prior to the interview, during the interview, and after the interview. As a result of developing a focused approach you are likely to experience renewed self-confidence and a stronger belief in your skills, talents, and abilities.

Inspiring Words
"Begin with the End in Mind means to begin each day, task, or project with a clear vision of your desired direction and destination, and then continue by flexing your proactive muscles to make things happen." - Dr. Stephen R. Covey (The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind)
How do you develop your vision? Do you have a clear picture of what your professional goals look like? Start by considering what you want to do with your career. Then write out your ideas and develop a list of goals that can be used as stepping stones. The power of your imagination will help you to take action that is inspired by your dreams. Everyone has a capacity to learn something new and to take control of their career. Start with a vision, allow yourself to dream, and create a path that is built through short-term and long-term goals. There is no limit to what you can achieve, as long as you believe in your capability and recognize the skills, strengths, and talents you have already developed throughout your career.

Building Collaborative Skills for Career Seekers and Adult Educators
The word "collaboration" is often thought of as a process, when we are interacting or working together with someone else in a productive manner. Collaboration is synonymous with cooperation, uniting, joining, or assisting. It is a two-way process that requires effective communication because there is an end result or goal that one or both parties have in mind to accomplish. Rarely does collaboration occur without a definite purpose.
As you consider this process, do you find that you need to develop your collaborative skills? Is collaboration a necessary skill for your career? The career seeker will find that collaborative skills are necessary for an effective job search campaign, including the job interview process. The adult educator is also likely to find that collaborative skills are necessary for facilitation of a class as learning is a co-creative process.
