Unit $5$ DQ: My Job Interview Did Not Go Well! $($Graded$)$

Mark Stark was a finance major at Kean University that went on an interview for an entry level position. He shared the following story about his experience in the interview: "I was excited and prepared for my interview. I thought they would ask me questions like: why are you interested in this position? Why do you like finance? However, never in my dreams did I imagine that one of the interviewers would ask me finance questions; real finance questions. After talking about general issues, her first interview question was why I like finance. I told her: Finance is what I like, I am majoring in Finance at Kean University, and I love it$!$ Then I went to explain in detail why I love finance. After I finished my answer, she stared at me and asked: what are bonds and why would a company use them? I freaked out, but I was able to calm myself and answer the question, remembering the most I could from my finance courses. She smiled an asked: how do you value a bond? I felt more comfortable with this question and answered it right away, but it was her last question that threw me off: what are bond yields and what are the determinants of bond yields? At first, I was going to answer whatever I could remember about the determinant of bond yi$$lds$.$ However, I decided to come clean: I took a deep breath and told her that I didn't know. Knowing that I screwed things up$,$ I apologized. She smiled and said: do not worry about it$.$ She continued the interview making non$-$finance questions. I don't know, but I believe my job interview did not go well."

Can you answer the interviewer's questions? What would you say if you were in Mark's situation?

P$.$S$.$ Mark was hired for the position!
