Q2:
Read the given situation and underline the elements that show ‘Stage Fright’. 5
Mr. Smith is working with Prof. Huxley as teacher assistant at the school of Business and Management Sciences in the
University of Newcastle, Australia. He was supposed to give an oral
presentation on “Types of Jobs Interviews” to Business Communication students. During
his walk to the stage, his knees began to shake but tried to overlook it and
posed to be confident and composed. He reached the stage, mumbled while giving
his introduction and started describing his topic without greeting the
audience. ‘There are a variety of types of interviews that employers may
conduct,’ and put his hands in his pockets, ‘including behavioural interviews,
group interviews, phone and video interviews, second interviews, and even
interviews held during a meal,’ touching his hair. While loosening his tie, he
continued ‘One of the reasons employers take job candidates out to lunch or
dinner is to evaluate their social skills and to see if they can handle themselves
gracefully under pressure’ (sigh of relief….). While sorting out his notes he
resumed his description on types of interviews, firmly clenched his hands and started
from case interviews to competency based interviews to informational interview
to group interview to interview at public places to mock interview to final
interview and many times ignored the raised hand for question from the
audience.
