 Career Corner
|
What's the best way to respond to the common interview question, "What are your strengths?" We can help you take your interview skills to the next level. Obtain coaching during a mock interview and access "how to" documents and videos on interview preparation. Do you respond to the strengths question with, "It's easy for me to maintain a positive attitude."? This may work when interviewing for positions during your first and second years at Ohio State, but if you're seeking a highly competitive internship or entry-level career employment you will need a more polished response. For more resources visit: Arts and Sciences Career Services Office.
