Em hipótese alguma se direcione para uma entrevista sem auto conhecimento profissional e ter praticado para a entrevista, atualmente o bom profissional é aquele que se destaca nas entrevistas, por isso é importante estudar antes, pedir suporte a profissionais que estão aptos para dizer quem é você como profissional ou que agregue valores, principalmente falar de suas experiências sem aumentar ou conceituar eventualidades que não aconteceu em sua vida profissional, lembre-se aquilo que é mencionado em uma entrevista, será avaliado e levado em considerado para o determinado cargo, podendo ser utilizado algumas das informações prestadas, no desenvolver da atividade.

While we prepare for any interview, we always sit with our colleagues from food science and start discussing some important topics , and this is always very helpful!

My experience confirms that soft skills play a crucial role in helping individuals ace their food science interviews without making common mistakes. These skills, such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and adaptability, are highly valued in the food science industry.

Most scientists do not know who to explain technical terms to the people., it’s important as a food scientist you find ways of communicating your know and expertise to a large audience irrespective of their understanding. Putting in a place where they can easily relate

Um exemplo que vi é o candidato ser questionado sobre suas habilidades, qualidades e defeitos, e um fato importante é mostrar que busca se aprimorar até mesmo nas falhas, tal como tenho receio de falar em público mas, estou buscando aprimorar e estudar sobre o assunto para melhor desempenhar a atividade e contribuir mais com a equipe. Ciências dos alimentos sempre está relacionado com a boa convivência e desempenho em equipe, habilidade para fazer treinamentos da área, ser comunicativo, visão crítica sobre as atividades, ter habilidade em resolver problemas, ajudar os colegas de trabalho com conhecimentos e ações, estar disposto a novos aprendizados, porque na área de alimentos tem-se novos aprendizados diariamente.

O bom profissional é aquele que se disponha ouvir, e junto se permitir fazer a análise crítica sobre determinado tema, mas também que saiba captar a informação e sabe contribuir, algumas vezes vão colocar um problema para testar a habilidade de desenrolar o assunto, lembre-se de suas experiências e pense com agilidade o que seria melhor para poder resolver a situação, mesmo que seja realidade diferente daquela que já passou, por isso desenvolva a habilidade de conhecer processos diferentes, isso auxilia no raciocinar e expor uma resolução. Neste caso, priorize fazer o networking com outros profissionais para adquirir conhecimentos .

One thing i have to add up with this is ...after the interview along with personalized email we can add certain positive thoughts regarding the particular interview or the institutiomon with which we are going to hired

I always suggest carrying a one page document containing all information related to you, be it educational, research, experience, job, grants etc etc , try to use graphics if relevant

Je pense qu’il faut développer une culture générale, une expérience personnelle pratique et se confronter de façon permanente au terrain pour identifier les champs d’application au sein de la société (stages, bénévolat, tests et recherches personnelles) et comprendre les écosystèmes globaux et spécifiques dans lesquels ses compétences et propositions de valeur vont s’exprimer, vont servir la société. Cela évite d’être hors sol ou permet d’avoir une approche systémique qui fait sens.
