My First Ever Job Interview

I enrolled in a Call-Center Training course last summer for me to have some part time job "income" this school year. I learned a lot from it, from the basic things you should be familiar about the Call Center Business to the add-on(s) of the training. I was able to have the American accent and I was reviewed by my past lessons way back in HS like subject-verb agreement and putting up a good communication with another person. Not only that, the training let me experience my very first job interview. Dave(my mentor) gave us tips on how to answer those trap questions in an interview and so I became confident in facing the three interviewers. They are from Gen Pact Philippines - one of the fastest growing call centers in the country situated in Alabang, Muntinlupa City. To recap the interview I had, here's the Q&A of it:

1. Mark, you are a BS Mathematics student. What are the things you are to teach to your students after graduation?
A.I'll be focusing on Math genres like Algebra, Calculus and other Math related subjects.

2.Do you have any hobby? What is it?
A.I don't prefer physical activities, I do blogging.

3. What do you usually blog?
A.Anything under the sun. Like things that I just recently do and things that I can not express verbally.

--that ends the very easy initial interview--

Here's the final one:

1.If you were given the chance to be with a famous person, who would that be and why?
A.If I would be given the chance to be with a famous person, that would be Barack Obama. I would have the opportunity to ask him what are his principles and ways on governing a popular and rich state like USA. I would have the chance to ask him how does it feel being the first black president of one of the richest nation around. In that way, I can tell it to our own president in order for her to get some hint on how to be a good, if not, better president.

I forgot the other two but I promise to quote it on my next post.
