Tips to get hired

Nerves are common. Nerves are healthy. You’re nervous because you care and want to do well.

However, there is a big difference between being a little nervous and having crippling nerves before an interview that can impact your performance.

So, why the nerves?

The uncertainty. Before most interviews, we don’t know:

A. The personalities of the people we will be meeting with. B. The exact questions we will receive.

There are 2 main ways to reduce interview nerves:

1. Learn as much as possible about the company and the role from available sources.
2. Practice answers to common interview questions, OUT LOUD, over and over again.

We can only control what is in our control, and those 2 things are very much in our control.

Whether a company is public or private, research ahead of time to gain familiarity and prepare yourself with good questions for the interviewer.

Practicing answers to common questions out loud will both allow those old stories and examples to come to the forefront of your mind which will then allow you to deliver responses in a calm and thoughtful way.

So I applied to a job at a company through Indeed, and they called me back and left a voicemail to call them. When I checked Glassdoor, their most recent reviews (from May 2020 to now) are all 5/5 star reviews -- at least 1 per month. Whereas, the older ones are all less than stellar. Should I take this to be a red flag? Or call them back? Any advice would be most welcome. #jobsearch #jobhunt #interview #advice

Skills and experience are important when applying for the job you want but to help ensure that you're the right candidate many hiring managers look to see if you possess certain character traits.

Character traits that are key to landing your next job include: Communicator, Confidence and Caring to name just a few.

Which trait do you think is your strongest and which is one do you think might be holding you back? Sometimes, I think my ability to focus needs improvement.

I wanted everyone's thoughts on this : last year I interviewed for a job with another person present who was also interviewing for the same job.No word from employer that this would take place. Job ended badly. Is this fraudulent ? It was a franchise postion . I almost walked out but I wanted to work. thoughts? #advice
