People to People interviews..


Question Posted Tuesday October 9 2007, 8:46 pm

okay theres this club called "People to People." My friend told me about it, and I thought it would be cool so I nominated myself for it. My sister already was nominated by somebody else.. and yeah its possible to just nominate yourself so I did, and now I can go to a meeting. My problem is.. my friends who have been in People to People (this year we get to go to Japan!) say you have to do this interview.. um has anybody else been in People to People and knows what the interviews are like? cause a lot of people want to get to go on the trip and I'm dying to go to Japan.. I've wanted to go there my whole life, because when I was younger I really liked Japanese stuff.. I mean I guess I've already been to quite a lot of places. I was born in London, my parents are from Cameroon and I've visited Cameroon.. I have a very interesting childhood and I'm a pretty interesting , fun, hardworking person. I think I am a perfect canidate.. but Im not sure.. would they want people who havent been to places to get to go to People to People? my dad says he will pay for me and my sister if we get in (yeah we know its expensive but its worth it) but its not like my family is millionaires and can afford to go to amazing places like ALL the time.. so the experience would be...REALLY special. please help.. and thanks SO much for your time. :)

this is a good question for me to answer because i went to australia with people to people :) basically the interview is very easy- you wear semi-nice clothing and go talk to an adult and answer their questions. it's stuff like, "what do you do after school?" and "what's your favorite school subject?" and "have you ever traveled without your parents before?" it's really easy, and it's supposed to help people to people make sure that you are a good person. if somebody went in there and started freaking out or was really really rude or something, then they probably wouldn't get to go. it doesn't matter if you have traveled before or not. don't sweat the interview- you will get in. and most likely it will be a group interview- the two people i was interviewed with ended up going on the trip and i became good friends with them. don't let this opportunity go to waste! it is so cool to visit other countries, and i recommend people to people to anybody! i have to leave to go do something right now, but if you have any questions then leave them in my inbox and i will get to them tonight probably :)

wow. what a coincedence, i asewell am part of the people to people porgram.
i did my interview over the phone, and it was really easy. They'll ask you questions about school family, goals, and you hobbies. The important thing i s to be polite and be yourself. remeber to relax, and answer honestly.
