Want to Get Hired?
By: Ana P. Santos
Don’t mix your dream job with a nightmare interview or resume.
“Well, to be honest, I’m just waiting for my boyfriend to
propose to me. I actually don’t know what to do if he won’t. Maybe I’ll
just go abroad.”
That was an actual answer I got during a job interview for a
Marketing officer for my team. I politely ended the interview shortly
after that. Her desperation and lack of career direction set off alarm
bells. I didn’t want someone like that on my team.
There are just as many ways to ace a job interview as there are to
kill it. Be aware, be conscious so you don’t sabotage yourself.
Job interviews, performance assessments, and presenting yourself to
prospective clients are a lot like going out on a date. You want to put
your best foot forward, make a good impression, and be invited back for
another interview or a followup meeting. That is, you want to score
another date—with a mutually beneficial and fulfilling relationship
being the end goal.
