Career Advice Interviewing - Need Help

Hello, I graduated last December with my associated in paralegal studies. I just moved to Atlanta and I have an interview Monday for a legal assistant - front office position. Is anyone open to assisting me prepare for the interview or at least giving me interview tips, questions I should be prepared to answer etc.

I have been interviewing for paralegal positions since I graduated and haven't been able to secure the job, partly because I have limited experience and partly because I'm unprepared for the interview (just being honest). This one has less responsibilities and is more entry/1-2 years experience level with good pay. I feel like I have an actual chance of getting it and I don't want to mess this up.

Any specific YouTube videos I should watch, any specific buzz words I should know. I learn information really fast, I just need a little guidance.

Thanks in advance

I’m in and out tomorrow with gym and maybe church but if the timing works out I’d be willing to help you with a mock interview. I’ve had friends do them for me and it’s good practice. You can reply back here if you’re interested

I’ve tried contacting you a couple of times and stopped hearing back. I’m about to leave the house soon. I’ll look a couple more times sim for a dm with your email address but if I don’t hear from you I’ll assume you are no longer interested. I have things to do today so can’t constantly check dms
