Hi

I have an interview for a sports photograph job and need "professionals" to share their experience with me and give me "tips" on how to ace the interview and test which goes with it.

I have been some experience but would appreciate any suggestions readers can give me.

Thank you.
Morgan

    I'm not sure how to answer this but you should be familiar with the sport or
    sports you will shoot. Be able to answer questions about equipment and it's
    use, etc.

    Most definitely, you want to present a portfolio with examples of your sports
    related work.

    It also depends on what type of job it is:
    Staff newspaper position
    Stringer newspaper position
    Working for a studio taking photos for print sales

    Provide some details about the position you're interviewing for and the type of work you'll be doing.

    Maybe, you should share more info?

    Will you be shooting a sport you are familiar with?
    What kind of equipment do you have? can you share what your longest lens may be?

    It will be easier to help you , with added info.
