The Best Practices of an Examiner

           Of all the professionals existing in the city, it was enough luck to be given a chance to be one of CEM’s examiners.  Being part of that world is somehow a big challenge because speaking in front of different personalities of different ages is a much effort. Heart’s pounding, tremor hands especially the first time, unpredictable troubles from the students especially the kids about ages four to nine, raised eye browses from high school girls,(duh!, they’re not even as good as they think they are anyway), and the best part of everything? Waking up so early in the morning for out of town trips. 

These things were not experienced by other professionals and it was my best luck to be part of it for it taught me how to act professionally and most especially, it taught me to understand confidence. 

Define confidence. Examiner that is. Heads up, chin up, make ups, nice outfit just like in the corporate world, high heels, tack- ins, belts, nice bags (whoa! They make you look fabulous), the good mornings from the people you pass by, and the best definition? Head Turner….

To be the best examiner that you can be, one should have the courage to fight for whatever fear they have facing people, and one should understand that this job is designed to be part of the future professionals future and without us examiner, these students will be doomed to uncertainty of what fits them best in choosing a career. So how could you not be the best knowing these facts?
