Mykola Krupko, Hospital Librarian<\/span><\/h3>\n

\"MykolaKrupko\"<\/a>In this blog post I would like to continue to share experience of job search of some graduates of MLIS programs in Quebec, Canada. In May 2014 I interviewed my assistant Josiane Doucet-Alarie<\/a> and in this blog post I\u2019m glad to present my former classmate and my friend Mykola Krupko. Now he is a librarian in a hospital library in Sherbrooke.<\/p>\n

Elena.<\/strong> I know your biography is an eventful one.\u00a0 Please, share your experience and background in few words.
\nMykola.\u00a0<\/strong>I hold a bachelor’s degree in health sciences. In 2011 I began my studies at the Master of Information Studies (MIS) program at the University of Montreal. From July 2012 to December 2013, I worked as a part-time reference technician in a public library. I completed 35-days internship in a hospital library. I graduated in July 2013. From September to December 2013 I continued to work as a volunteer in the same hospital library.<\/p>\n

Elena.\u00a0<\/strong>How did you find your current library job?
\nMykola.\u00a0<\/strong>I found job offer at the website of the School of Library Science of the University of Montreal. I also subscribed the RSS feeds of the Corporation of the Professional Librarians of Quebec and ASTED.<\/p>\n

Elena.\u00a0<\/b>Do you remember your first interview for a library position? Was it difficult or successful or useful? Do you remember particular questions that were uncommon or funny or strange?
\nMykola<\/strong>. It was an interview for a part-time library position in one of the Montreal public libraries. It was one of the most difficult interviews that I\u2019ve ever had.<\/p>\n

This interview was prepared by a private company of human resources management by request of Montreal municipality. It was my first interview for a librarian job and they asked me some questions I had not prepared. One of the unexpected questions was, “What you are going to do if there is an interruption of electricity in the library?”<\/p>\n

I was not selected for this position, but it was a very good experience because it allowed me to be prepared better for other interviews.\"ElenaBubelich\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Elena.<\/strong> Do you remember your first day or week at your first library position? What major challenges did you face.
\nMykola.<\/strong> The major challenge that I faced during the first week at my first library job was a large amount of the information that I had to remember.<\/p>\n

Elena.<\/strong> What could you advise students who start the\u00a0Master of Information Studies (MIS) program?
\nMykola<\/strong>.
\n1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Try to find a part-time job or volunteer job during your study at University.
\n2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Be natural and relaxed during job interview.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
