    You're increasingly becoming my fave ID content creator. It's refreshing to see someone so experienced and mature still be laid back and chill. This is THE confidence-boosting interview prep vid I've been looking for! Most of my imposter syndrome comes from only having one true ID experience and thus not rly knowing what to expect in the interviews. I'm taking notes from this vid, and practicing answering some, or all, of these with the STAR method which I hear is a sought-after formula. Thx for ur content. I turn to u when I wanna go on YT, but still feel productive..I also downloaded the free cheat sheet, thx for that!

    Great video. I am a Senior ID at a Big 10 school. I totally agree with you that it's not about good looking or purely click heavy e-learning courses. Instructional design is much more than that.

    Thanks a lot for the details. I am a technical writer and would like to switch to ID role in future. Not sure though if my tech writing exp would be of much use in such kind of a role. What are your thoughts/suggestion? Thanks in advance.

    Hi Priti, thanks for watching! Yes, writing is a large part of what an instructional designer does so I think your experience as a technical writer would be very beneficial. Examples include writing a design document, project summaries, job aids, support materials - there are all kinds of things that require good writing skills.

    @@stephzacharias Knowing that they will be asking about it, I would prepare by becoming familiar with it - I saw an example here: www.tamiu.edu/qm/about/qmrubric.shtml And then, I'd be prepared to explain how I'd use it to design a course. I'd have an example ready where I walk through a course topic and describe how I'd design using that rubric. Good luck!
