Focus on Interview

Interviewing for a pageant is just like a job interview.  The same skills you acquire preparing for the interview portion of the pageant can also be adapted to other interview opportunities.   Before you walk into the interview room, visualize yourself walking into the interview. 

What will you say?  How will you react?  What color lip stick will you wear?  What hair style is appropriate?  Rehearse it all.  Talking to yourself in the mirror is helpful.  Or, if you have a video camera, use it to record yourself answering questions and then watch it.  Pick yourself apart.  It’s ok, you are your own worst critic and you want to be your best.  Fix what you don’t like, and then practice again.  Perfection is when practice and determination come together.  And to win, you need to be your best.
