How to get the job: keep winning

The next step is all that matters when interviewing

1 min readFeb 9, 2019

A recruiter calling you for any job, but hopefully one that suits you.

Fire your resume and write one that can win for you.

Demonstrating that you match what’s written, and then some.

Be grateful, sincere, energetic, concise, and positive.

Proving right whoever green-lit your interview.

Be sensitive to cues that can help guide your performance. Be appropriately curious. Be everything you were in the phone screening, too.

Don’t forget the post-interview ‘Thank you’ message.

Reaffirming the intuition of whoever green-lit your interview, and converting anyone still on the fence about you.

Know what you offer. Know what you lack. Ask what you’ll learn. Ask about the future.
