Interview Reflection.  
To be honest i was not well prepared for the interview. I was very 
nervous and I had so many things in my mind at that moment, I was all over 
the place. However, I did overcome it, in the first interview even though I was 
not ready but I managed to go with the flow and answer all the questions 
wisely and thoughtfully. I was very hornet toward the question and I tried my 
best to not talk out of topic. In the first interview I got 5.5/6 which is very high 
so I became very worried for the second interview because the main aim is to 
get a higher score than the previous one. However I was well prepared before 
the second interview. The only problem from the first interview was that I am 
not good with adjectives/ vocabs that can describe me as a person/ 
personalities, so I did some research. In the second interview I got (6/6) By 
viewing the video of my both interviews, I could feel and see the differences in 
my self-confidence. The improvement shows a lot and it pays off my hard 
work.
