THINGS TO SAY IN AN INTERVIEW AFTER STUDY ABROAD
The best interview responses to show how study abroad makes you the best candidate.
Working in a professional setting in another country is eye-opening in terms of being able to explore different environments and how they function. I now have some background interacting and communicating with professionals in another country and language. I am inspired to pursue opportunities that involve working with the language learning process and I am looking forward to applying this direction to my career path.
