yugerry Posted January 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Yeh, I don't believe that part. I think you can always upgrade your interviewing skills, even a night before the interview . But being yourself is the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
future_doc Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Absolutely, being your personable, communicative, ethical, critical thinking self is key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dokrbb Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 well, why not , I agree with the advice, in the meaning of... when you read more, you develop a broader point of view on the same matter, so it has a piece of truth here...

sprinkles Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 "What mistakes do applicants make in acting stations? Some broke down crying or responded angrily when they got frustrated. But according to Rosenfeld, one of the most serious errors an applicant can do is to look at the interviewer instead of exclusively dealing with the actor." Oh god. If I ever get lucky enough to get invited to an MMI that might be my biggest problem - especially if the actor starts to cry! I have a horrible horrible horrible reflex of sometimes laughing when people cry :S I know that sounds horrible but I think its my secret way of coping? lol I have been working on it and have it under control now b=about 95% of the time. But oh god...imagine 'sara' starts to cry cause she is afraid to fly and I start laughing. OH GOD. Could you imagine? WHATS WRONG WITH ME?!!

But being yourself is the key. I agree! I've prepped to last minute for some interviews and ended up acing them because of the practice! but of course be yourself at the end of the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to imagine this, would be so funny, even if I would play the crying person's role hope your interviewer would consider your reaction as a Mature Defense Mechanism, so you would prove you are emotionally healthy person, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yugerry Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 LOL. That'll be super funny during a real MMI. It'll be interesting to see how the interviewer will react. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprinkles Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 lol I know right?! hehee I hope the interviewer will be as understanding as light hearted as you guys! loll and omg I'm so glad that it shows my 'maturity' I was actually starting to worry a little ;P but yah. I can see the scenario now: I walk in and this girl is crying hysterically. At first I would be all and sad then I would look at the interviewer and look back at the girl and realize this is all fake. Some girl is getting paid to cry hysterically to freak me out. Then I would probably smirk...then go pffffff...HAHAHAHAHAA!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
