Answer to Question 1

Answer: Show keen interest in the job, relate your skills and experience to the organization's needs, listen attentively, and ask insightful questions to show that you've done your research.
Make sure to emphasize how your skills and abilities will be a valuable addition to the company during the selection stage of the interview process.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: In structured interviews, the employer asks a series of prepared questions in a set order. In less formal open-ended interviews, the employer asks broad questions, encouraging the applicant to talk freely.
You can prepare for both types of interviews by considering commonly asked interview questions and developing brief answers as well as examples that illustrate your skills and abilities.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
