Ishan – Qualtrics Interview 1/10/18 Ishan YOU’RE HIRED!!!!!
Cover Letter and Resume Feedback:
Excellent cover letter! Format was spot on. First paragraph: introduction, how you heard about the position and which position. Many employers have multiple positions, so this detail is important.
You did a good summarizing your experience and qualifications in the second paragraph. Make certain to align it to the job description.
Tips to make it even better: Tie it specifically to the company description and job description. Qualtrics is focused on SaaS cloud computing and web scalability – mention these types of things – either your experience with these or your desire to learn more during this internship. The job description mentions working closely with others and collaboration, beef up your teamwork and collaboration experience in the cover letter or on the resume.
Resume. Excellent. Good organization and format. Very easy to find relevant skills, etc. Only noticed one typo under Activities: including including…
You did a great job of providing just enough level of detail.
Interview Feedback:
You did very well! Eye contact is hard via web. Many companies are using web interviews. Test it out in advance and figure out how to make eye contact with the interviewer for an added advantage– it is odd as you usually have to look at the camera and not their image.
You did a great job of listening to the question and answering it while providing additional information that you wished to share.
You appeared very comfortable, not nervous at all. I understand this was a practice interview, but for actual interviews have prepared questions. Always ask about the company, potential learning and growth opportunities, etc. Do some homework and interview the interviewer on the company and position. You may decide it’s a company where you do not want to work. Fully understand your options before making a career choice.
