Three Tips for Interviewing Well

I love interviewing applicants. It’s the favorite part of my job. But for an applicant, it can be the most stressful point of their career! And to make matters worse, a job seeker doesn’t know which style of interview questions they’ll be asked.

There are many different types of interview questions. These include behavioral, situational, and psychological, to name a few. So, what can you do to prepare for interviews at our organization? Keep track of your workplace successes daily and highlight our values in these accomplishments. Doing this can have positive effects on your career and personal life.

Here are 3 reasons why:

  1. Good Interview Stories. When you interview for a promotion, you’ll have plenty of good examples in response to interview questions. And you’ll appear like an engaged employee.
  2. Your Resume Writes Itself. When you draw from your documented successes, updating your resume can take minutes instead of hours. 
  3. Builds Self-confidence. When you are aware and recognized for your contributions, your confidence will grow. This can affect your overall well-being. 

Accomplishing and tracking workplace success is the #1 thing you can do to prepare for your next interview!
