Mock Interview Questions
- 1. Mock Interview Questions for Channel 4 1. Tell me about yourself... I am a punctual and hard working person who has been passionate for the media industry since I can remember. Fromfirst choosing media at GCSE and now close to completing my third year of the course in college, my interest in the industry has continued to grow more and more and I believe will do for many years. 2. What are your strengths and weaknesses? My strengths are that I am a determined person, in the workplace and outside, meaning if I am perhaps working towards a deadline or simply completing a task, I always remain determined to complete things on time and to the highest standard. As well as this I am a keen learner and always remain positive when taking in new information from others, allowing me to broaden my knowledge. I believe my weaknesses are that I self-criticise and at times can be introverted, but I know that working in a role I enjoy for a company like Channel 4, I will always be passionate for my job and will be able to become more confident in myself. 3. Why do you want to work here? Growing up, Channel 4 has always been the channel I continuously go back to. With the UK’s biggest streaming serviceas well as creating some of my favourite shows like The IT Crowd and Taskmaster, it would truly be great to be able to work for such a fantastic company. 4. Wheredo you see yourself in 5 yearstime? In five years I would love to still be working for Channel 4, hopefully in a higher role, where I know I will be just as passionate as I currently amfor the company. 5. Describe a time where you were required to work in a team. In college we were tasked with creatinga barbering video for the barberingcourse at Sunderland College’sCity Campus, in which we had to filmand edit together the video for students to use and learn from. This meant that in my group we needed to assign roles and work together to ensure we got all of the footage necessary. We simply assigned roles by asking each other which role we would each be comfortable in, this way we were all happy with the outcome. Upon assigning roles, we began filming – two of us filming and the other acting as director, making sure everything looked and was correct. Working as a team, we were able to capture different angles and shot sizes, ensuring variety in the final edit. We each completed a edit of the footageindividually and were able to take inspiration fromone another in the process.
