Today I had my on-camera interview for a VJ position with MTVu!!! This has been my dream job since like 7th grade.. yes, back in the days of Cason Daly and TRL
I think the interview went well? I mean its really up to the producers and if they like me. I just hope that the fact that I'm out of school doesn't harm my chances - I mean I'm still only 22, even if I do have an MBA...
So everyone wants to know what the process is like...
Application Process
So I sent in my resume and a photo to MTVu last week and got a call yesterday.
Phone Interview/Screening
The call was a short phone interview asking me questions like - what are your favorite types of music, favorite band, etc.
Then they asked me to send a few more pictures to get a better idea of what I looked like. Before I could even decide what pictures to send in, I got a call from her boss asking me to come in for a camera interview the next day (today)!!!
I was sent some cues, things you'd see on cue cards, to look over. Pretty straight forward stuff.
On-Camera Interview
At the interview, I got there a tad early, then he came out and brough tme to this room - which was essentially an office w/ empty walls, but had the complete set up w/ a desk and everything, except there was a camera facing the wall.
For the on-camera interview, the producer started off filming a conversation type interview , where I was answering questions - boy did I learn some interesting things while being interviewed. Then I did the cues, which went somewhat well, it only took me like 1.5 times to run through them. I just hope I didn't speak too quickly as I tend to do when I get nervous.
The filming was very quick, it was supposed to start at 3 PM and I was out by 3:15 PM.
Fingers crossed to see how it all goes!
