Sitting Down for an Interview

An interesting fact is that the selection process involved a 40-minute group interview. If you find yourself in a situation where you have to be personally interviewed, you will want to brush up on your interviewing skills. Search for books from Amazon or at your local library dealing with job interview tips. Much of the same information will be applicable to a scholarship interview.
