Preparation=Confidence

I surprisingly enjoyed practicing interviews. I especially gained a lot from thinking and writing beforehand about how I would respond to certain questions. I felt that it helped me to feel more confident in what I said when the time to interview came.
I also learned a lot when answering the question "What is your greatest weakness?" I liked tailoring my answers to fit the job in question. I want to think more about potential questions and how I would answer them. For applying to General Mills in particular, interviews will include a series of technical questions relating to potential issues found in the plant and how I would go about resolving them. This in the past has intimidated me and made me chicken out when it came time to apply. Now I think I could come more prepared.
I want to further work on expanding on the information I have already given in the resume and cover letter instead of just restating it. I think knowing well what information they already know is another way to be well-prepared for the interview.
