UCLAgirl-I REALLY like your post! I am 100% with you when it comes to confidence. It is a quality that makes you stand out and people will take notice. All people get nervous-even the MOST confident-but you can still remain yourself and use that nervous energy to your advantage. The more interaction a person has the more "practice" at learning to handle an awkward situation...and recruitment can be awkward.

Plus to echo another point you made-by being yourself, you have less stress than you would trying to maintain an image.

Very, very good points.

Creating an image and polishing your image are two different things. One is on the outside and the other comes from within.

Confidence is the ability to walk into any give arena and feel a level of comfort, NOT trying to make people think you are hot stuff
or better than them...

A little motto I grew up with-If I don't think much of myself, why should anyone else? A lot of truth there.

From UCLAgirl's post- The best way to prepare, in my opinion though, is to make sure that you are really confident and proud to be you. Have a good attitude about yourself and be comfortable with who you are.
