-at a later time, according to Geer.
. Geer noted that a resume is a
“simple creature’ requiring only
four essentials — expectations, edu-
cation, experience and extracurricu-
“lars. Do not overdue the extracurri-
culars, making mention of no less
than three and no more than seven.
~ Be careful with grammatical
errors, spelling, typographical
‘errors, Geer urged, since these can
ruin even the most effective
resume.
Jenks conducted a mock job inter-
view with College Misericordia
senior William Jones. He gave the
group pointers on how to complete a
successful job interview. Jenk’s
first rule is ‘‘Be Yourself.”
Jenks recommended spending a
little time thinking about these
questions, all of which he asked in
the interview. Why did you choose
the college you attended? Why did
you choose your major? Why did
you want this interview? Be honest.
If you chose the college for financial
reasons, say so. A potential
employer can tell when you are
hedging.
If you are going to be in the city
where the interview will take place,
note that in your resume. This gives
you a better chance of getting an
interview. When answering ques-
tions, look directly at the inter-
viewer. This gives you the appear-
ance of self-confidence which is
vital in obtaining a job.
All those involved with the fair
agreed that your college major need
not dictate what kind of job you will
get.
According to Jenks, “a good
person can really get a job any-
where.”

daily reports, often working until
well after midnight.
At the end of the three days,
Conroy met with the staff of the
“high school and gave them a gen-
eral report, explaining that it would
be at least six weeks before the
District would hve a detailed report
of the committee’s evaluation. Over-
all, Conroy said, the committee
found the district carrying out a
very satisfactory program but like
Bands
most schools there were some weak-
nesses and, in some areas, he
believed the school to be much
stronger than most realized. He
particularly complimented the
administration on the students and
their behavior during the commit-
tee’s period of observation.
In commenting on the evaluation,
Miss Bator said that she believed
the self-evaluation preparation done
by all members of the high school
faculty is the most important factor
in the entire evaluation; the fact
that the members do an in-depth
study of their strengths and weak-
nesses, knowing that someone will
judge them.
Bator also attributed the success
of the 1984 Middle States Evaluation
to the fine cooperation fo the depart-
ment heads and those working with
them.
