Job Interview

1.- Tell me about yourself

Well, my name is Benjamin Prieto, I am 18 years old, I live in Viña del Mar, in my family we are 8 in total (because my parents are divorced) 5 on my mom's side and 4 on my dad's side. I study in the Mackay school, I want to study engineering and in my free-time I practice surfing, scuba diving, swimming and sometimes I go to run.

3.- What is your greatest strength and your greatest weakness?

Talking about my greatest strengths I'm inspiring, warm and open, i have the ability to stand 3 minutes under the sea, i can surf with waves of 5 meters and i have a great knowledge in science. About my greatest weakness, I can identify only one, I'm scared of Sharks, i know that in chile there are no sharks but when i was child in summer vacations  in Malibu beach in California, USA I was attacked by one making me a big hurt physical and mental and i am attentive about that all the time.

4.- Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

In 5 years i see myself doing my studies of engineering in the university, working in this company as a lifeguard all the summer to save the people, with, hopefully, a girlfriend and improving all my abilities in each thing that i do.

5.- Why do you want to work here?

I want to work here because i don't see enough lifeguards here in this city, also the waves here are so strong with the capacity to drown 5 people at the same time and at the same wave and the people that go to beach don't respect the rules, so we have to stay alert.

7.- Describe a difficult work situation and what you did to overcome it

In the past above 2 years, in a family vacations in the south of chile, there was a child that was drowning because of a sea current so the thing that I do was swim to him take it out of the sea and did all the steps that I said previuosly.
