    Phenomenal content Jacqueline! I appreciated the way you presented the more quote unquote stereotypical, cliche and perfect answers before going on to show some sample sincere, human and real answers. Thank you, thank you, thank you Jacqueline! Also, well done with the effort behind the effort e.g. the way you transitioned between different sample personalities, it's much better then anything I could do, well done Jacqueline! Raza =)

    Should I tell the interviewer that I did my research on them? For example, my interviewer has a master's degree in marketing and I love marketing. So should I bring it in a way that's like "Hey I looked you up and saw that you have a masters in marketing and I enjoy reading about it", or should I say "one of the hobbies I have is reading about marketing, even though I don't want to major in marketing at college I still love marketing and I think it's a creative path"?

    To be honest, the sample answers are just very plain leaving no impression, just an average (or below average) applicant.
