Second interview for an associate consultant position at Oracle in a week & a half. Here’s some background on me. 22 y/o female, soon to be college grad. Going to practice speaking. I was stuttering out of nervousness during the first interview (behavioral questions asked). What kind of questions should I practice answering? Pls provide examples if you can! 😅😅

Madeline Mann, creator of Self Made Millennial, provides great resources on how to prepare for interviews. She actually has quite a few short YouTube videos on behavioral interviewing, questions, and the best methods for answering. There is also a video she has on something she calls a BAMF binder haha - I definitely recommend watching that and making one if you can. It helps reduce the nerves when answering questions and it's great to have something that you can actually refer to (speaking from experience).

Nerves are expected, especially for an entry level candidate. You'll be ok, just don't overthink it and be authentic

I would practice talking in the mirror! This has helped me a lot because I also have trouble with stuttering from nervousness. You should also practice questions you think you'd have a hard time answering, just so you feel more prepared and confident when answering them.

I was offered a project coordinator role but feel I should not accept the same without looking at other options. I aim to seek out a project manager role and was wondering if this would be the wrong step forward.

My company has given me a promotion without a raise. Any suggestions on how to deal with this?

Little background:

Asked for promotion in late 2020 - was required to skill up, after skilling up, asked again about when I'll be promoted and was denied because there is no "vacancy" for it.
Got my annual hike in Oct 2021 without the promotion. I asked HR last week again and got a random announcement email saying my promotion is w.e.f Oct 2021. ( and no raise for the newly promoted role).
