Hi Romina,
ReplyDeleteAfter reading this interesting topic, I thought of saying something about it.
1. The shots are carefully taken showing the gradual steps of the interview. The shots also show that you are keen and sympathetic. I like them all. Good job.
2. The interview questions are also good.
3. The proposed plan is very needful.
Good luck
