<p>Having done a number of alumni interviews, let me say that for me to write that the kid I interviewed was “introspective and impressive” s/he would have to do a lot more than tell me s/he used to be shy but high school experiences like MUN gave him confidence. That makes my cliche meter go ballistic.</p>
<p>I’m really not looking for naturally confident. I’m really only looking for natural. Sense of humor? Curiosity? Focus? Intelligence? Drive? Those kinds of things.</p>
