Interviewing After Accepting SA To Stay Sharp
Recently interviewed for a job at my school and realized my interview skills have completely gone down the drain. To stay sharp and professionally sociable for summer 2023 I was thinking about applying for and interviewing for finance roles at medium-sized companies (companies that accept 5-20 interns a summer) ? I have not advertised my SA anywhere, but I still know this is wrong as I would be wasting the employer's time since I have no intention of accepting. Is this a viable option? Are there better alternatives that you would recommend? Or is this not even necessary?
This is silly. Don't waste the employer's time. An interview shouldn't be daunting or difficult if you are confident in yourself and a quality candidate. Interviews are supposed to be conversations. Are you able to hold a conversation? If so, then it's completely irrelevant. I had an end-of-internship "informal conversation" which was really an interview to join another desk for another internship next year - because I knew my CV inside and out, my motivations, and key technicals/what was going on in the market, it wasn't any skin off my back.
I can hold a conversation and communicate my motivations particularly well, but sometimes the behaviorals can catch me off guard(tell me about a time...).
Just know your CV inside out and you'll be fine. I'm sure that after your internship you'll have a wealth of stuff you can talk about for those types of questions too. Don't be afraid to pause for a bit, ask for some time to think - but I think you know this already.
