Discussion
 Content
- Open your book on page 186-187 to see the delivery guidelines for the interview
It is important to remember that the purpose of the interview is two-fold: (1) The employer
needs to find out if you are the best candidate for the job and (2) you need to find out if this is a
good opportunity for you.

DAY 2

Application
 INTERVIEW
The COVID-19’s unexpected coming doesn’t only kill people, but also leaves fear in every
heart. Most of the people were in a panic, thinking of what will provide for the family and
their safety. But instead of spreading fear, why don’t we share knowledge to everyone. With
that, try to interview someone regarding Covid-19 on how it affects their lives at least 2-3
persons. Prepare an interview questions and give it a head of time to your interviewee so
he/she has time to prepare. Record your interview then if you want you can upload your
video on fb and you can use these hashtags below.

Values Integration
If God is in front of you and given a chance to interview Him, what are the questions you want to
ask to Him. Prepare at least 5-10 questions on a piece of paper.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be
dismayed, for – God is with you wherever you go. JOSHUA 1-9
