It was a pleasure to meet them and they seemed like they will be great people to work for. Over the summer I will work under one store manager and two assistant managers. In meeting all of them for the first time, I couldn&#8217;t help but feel like I was trying to sell myself to them. I wanted to come across as polite and eager to learn and work. To do this, I had to effectively communicate my unique skill set and demonstrate why I felt they had made the right choice in hiring me.<\/p>\n<p>I asked many questions during my meeting. Some of these questions were just to satisfy questions I had in my mind about my future employment, but others were different. I asked many questions to help guide the rest of my conversation so I could answer any questions they might have had about me.
