I am not going to lie, today was a very stressful day with having to start the mock interview presentation again. Right after I posted job listings, I started on it in my first hour that way I had more time to work on it. I use the font suggestions and slide outline from Chatgpt. I make sure to use the same fonts for the titles and the body of the slides. Instead chunky paragraphs, I made the main points as a bulleted list that way it is easier and quicker to read. I found a better template that looks more professional but still has a fun feel to it. I sent the update version to Carrie so she can look over it and give me any feedback. I will make any changes that I have to on Monday and hopeful finish this project. I cannot wait for the weekend to relax and refocus my thoughts so I am can come back on Monday and be ready to work hard. This internship is teaching me a lot about the real world and real life work experiences.

What I Did Today
I clocked-in though Homebase. We did a 3 minute type test but it wasn’t my best performance because typing on my laptop slows me down a bit. We role played as a customer service person who is dealing with a return of a product like a beverage or food. A Core student, Mark T, graduated today. We did the Rose Bud, Thorn exercise and shared with everyone. Mark also shared his portfolio of accomplishments with us in a presentation. Also volunteer DeAndre joined to share his experience after graduating from the program which was encouraging.
What I Did This Week
This was a great week. Focused on customer service scenarios via role play, videos, and accountability assignment. There was a Google Docs Jeopardy Challenge. Also Mock Interviews went great. After I got over my nervousness, all went well. My typing still needs improvement, but this week has been a great learning experience.
