Free Write

This week has been very busy for me,i had so much work to do, but the important thing is that i got it all done. My spring break was extremely relaxing for me. I went home to Atlanta and i got to see all my family again which is always a good thing. On thursday morning i left Atl and drove up to Charleston to hang out for the last weekend of spring break. it was also very relaxing. We stayed at a beach house in the city of Isle of Palms which a very nice place to live. The house we stayed in was right by the beach. I hope to go back there real soon.

Lies on Resumes

As i was reading the article, i noticed that lying on a resume is a popular thing around the world. I would have never guessed that about 50% of people applying for jobs lie on their resumes. It is not fair to the people who are telling the truth obviously because their chances decrease because of the people who make their resumes sound almost perfect.

Reading this was not a surprise to me because i have heard of a numerous amount of occasions where people have been caught lying and cheating of things of this sort. If you get caught in this situation it will lead to nothing but big trouble for the future. So i always go with the safest route which is telling the whole truth.

Presentation

When it comes to the presentations in class all of them were interesting because they were things that i never knew about. I was glad that i got to see all of them. I Learned a lot of new things and i hope to use them in the future.

The Presentation that stood out to me the most was the one with the chicken. I thought it was really cool that we had a chicken in the classroom and it wasn't going wild.I never knew that you could tame a chicken like that.

Mock Interview

As i had my mock interview it helped realize how important it is. It is good to show the person interviewing you that you are confident about yourself. i learned that confidence is a major plus in the interviewing category. this interview has helped me realize what i need to work on and also how to present myself.

Overall i am happy with how the mock interview turned out. I also got some pointers that will definitely help me out in the near future as i prepare for my real job interview.
