Our two questions today had to do with SKILLS! Skills are important because they are going to be on your resume as well.
One question is: What particular skills and qualities do you bring to this company? (The strategy is to talk a little about different skills. Remember to include particular job related skills -- "I am very proficient in international tax accounting." Also include computer competencies. "I am quite proficient at working in an online environment, and can manage data well using most of the functions of Excell." Finish with your language/cultural skills. Do not present yourself as bilingual --- unless you handle both languages at exactly the same level. Instead say, "I speak English and Chinese and can interact linguistically and culturally with people from many different cultures around the world.")
A more specific question is: What computer skills would you use to communicate, do presentations, and manage data? (Strategy here includes specific mention of computer skills/functions you use in each of these categories. EX: Well in doing presentations, I have found "PowerPoint" and "Photoshop" to be most helpful, and I generally prepare an agenda in MSWord. I also find that WEB-camming presentations and posting them online afterwards can make them available to all.")
Most of the hour was spent doing work on all papers. I would like to remind the not-so-computer proficient to investigate GOOGLE sites (available by going to www.google.com and clicking "MORE") as a possible way to build a simple site.
