She made it!

The phone interview just finished. She finally made it!

She asked some good questions and of course threw me a couple of surprises. I wasn't expecting she asking what my 3 strengths when it comes to designs and marketing. I said first I'm honest. Yea I did! I said I create work that are truthful and based on facts. I supposed I was thinking more in terms of advertisement and campaigning. The second strength I said was that I make my work distinctive. I create something, I go back and re-edit and revise it, so the work stand out from others. Yea, now looking back, doesn't everyone do that? What was I thinking?! The last thing I said was that I communicate, and open to new and creative inputs and feedback from others. No I don't think it's a strong answer to her question either. I was trying to make my personality strengths my design strengths. My response was not as precise or as straightforward as it could be. I don't have an excuse. I was trying to think and also impress her. It was not easy!

I might have an in-person interview next week. Let's hope that one goes well too!
