Yes, that interview may be important but if you don’t get this one, there will always be more opportunities. But with that said, you should still take every interview you go on as seriously as possible.

There are many other words you can use too. You should make sure that whatever words you’re using should be appropriate for the kind of job (or internship) you are going for. For instance, you shouldn’t go on and on about how creative you are if the only thing you’ll be doing is data entry. No matter what you say, always sound confident in your answer so you can truly show them who you are.Â
