Manage episode 421768661 series 2421188
In my opinion, job seekers are far too confident when it comes to their ability to interview. The reality is that most folks are just average at interviewing. However, for you, the career warriors aiming for the top positions, I’m calling you to be the best interviewee you can be.
Just to start out some things, here are some fun facts about the job interview process:
- According to Forbes, you only have seven seconds to make a strong first impression.
- 67% of recruiters believe that maintaining eye contact is essential for making a positive impression (Jobspin).
- 82% of hiring managers employ virtual interviews (Indeed).
So, consider this episode an opportunity to pick up a thing or two about those interviews you may or may not hate.This may be the thing…
Today I brought on the amazing Sam Owens who is a veteran guest here on the podcast.
sam is the founder of Sam’s Career Talk where he provides career coaching services and helps people land their dream jobs and thrive in them. He is also a chief marketing officer who has worked for three multi-billion dollar companies in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry, and now runs marketing for Freezing Point, the makers of Frazil. He is the author of I HATE JOB INTERVIEWS, an exciting book that will be released by HarperCollins on June 4 of 2024.
...and let’s launch right into it with the Career Warrior Podcast!
