⬇️ There is only ONE answer to this question. I don’t care if your commute was an hour long with 4 transfers and you couldn’t find the office. DO NOT TELL THEM THAT! And whatever you do, Don’t go into a 10 mins story about how you got to the office or what directions you used. NO ONE CARES! 👉Trust meI got famous for telling you all what to lie about in job interviews 👈 🧠 A lot of people bomb their job interviews in the very first 10 mins during small talk portion because they reveal too much about themselves. A job interview is NOT therapy and it is NOT a date. If you share personal information, they will just use it against you because the hiring process if full of biases and they are looking for reasons to eliminate you. If you tell them the office was hard to find and that you got lost they will think that you are incapable. If you tell them that the commute was long, they will think that you will always be late. Don’t get eliminated by not knowing how to answer the easiest questions of them all the small talk questions. When they say, Did you have any problems finding us? You say, “Nope the commute was easy.” When they say, How are you? You say, “I am great, thank you. How are you?” These questions are a formality. ❌Don’t overthink it or try to form a bond in the interview. ❌Don’t do something weird to try to be memorable. 🤓In a job interview you want to be remembered for the right reasons, like your great resume, awesome qualifications and the impressive questions to ask at the end of the interview. 💪Pro-tip- if you hate it when job interviews feel like a firing squad, like the hiring manager is just asking you question after question after question. You can make is more conversational by asking them questions throughout the job interview. ❌Don’t reserve all your questions for the end. ✅A job interview is a two-way street you should be interviewing them as much as you they are interviewing you. #jobinterview #interviewtips #corporate #career #unemployed - @anna..papalia
