3 Tips to Crush Your Next Job Interview


so going on a job interview has got to
be one of the most nerve-wracking things
you’ll do and so I want to give you
three different tips on what you could
do to crush your next job interview from
an employer point of view not the
employee because I’ve done hundreds if
not thousands of interviews and I can
tell you what worked and what didn’t
work so let’s get right into it think
about the three steps as before the
interview during the interview and after
the interview let’s first talk about
before the interview I the employer
loved it when the person wanted to get
the job has done a research on the
company for instance I said what a
person did that then I was interviewing
them they were hiring for a CFO position
with our company the amount of research
this person had done was so impressive I
can’t even tell you he knew stories
articles employees leaders challenges
everything so I’m sinners saying this is
how this person does research imagine if
they work with us how much research
they’re gonna do on systems we need
technologies we need this is very
impressive I like this guy and so before
him coming for the interview I got an
email on LinkedIn saying my name is
such-and-such I notice your inner your
job posting I am really looking for the
meeting with you on the CFO position for
this company and we met I was very
impressed by him okay so step number one
do a lot of research number two during
the interview overselling
only works if you’re going on a date
with a girl or a guy and by the way if
you oversell yourself that relationships
gonna be a very short sale you gotta be
kind of honest about what you’re doing
with the business and who you are so I
sat with somebody and I said how much
you know about this have to be honest
with you I don’t know a lot about this
but I can tell you what I know a lot
about boom boom boom what that told me
what this person is I’m getting somebody
that’s gonna be very direct very honest
and they know what they don’t know they
know what they do no wonder geyser was
interviewing he said look this software
I don’t know about these areas I am very
good at but with this all I need to do
is go to a one-week course and I would
get very good at this because one thing
about me is I don’t want the fastest
learners I know and I can’t wait to
introduce that to you good I like that
okay so don’t oversell your superior
self and find a way to match the mead
with what your values and principles and
what would your gifts and strengths that
you bring in match those two together
let me give you the last one you after
the interview
I had seven job interviews I did last
week that I was looking for right only
one of them messaged me back afterwards
and said the following they said thank
you so much for your time today and by
the way this was the most qualified one
out of all of them how impressive is
this the person that’s the most
qualified who has worked with the
biggest account as the most qualified
person for this position was the only
one that sent me the email and he said I
just want you to I really enjoyed our
time together I am the person you want
not only do I want this job I am really
looking forward to this because I can
see myself bringing on a lot of value to
the company I hope I get a chance to
meet with you on a second interview
regardless I wish you all the best
sincerely dah dah dah I said you know
what purely classy on a message like
this it made me when we set then as the
employer when we sat down on our board
meeting and the investors and everybody
was looking at everybody and they had
already done the reference calls they
said who are you impressed with I said
well the only person that sent me a note
afterwards was this person so I want you
to think about it when you’re going on
your next job interview
think about the before why because it
separates you from everybody else if you
do your research
think about your during con overselling
why because it gives you credibility
with the person you’re working with
knowing you’re forthright and there’s
not gonna be any surprises because if
you oversell and we work and we realize
you were over selling you get fired fast
and you don’t want to get fired fights
because that doesn’t look good on a
resume and last but not least on the
after send that note why because only a
few people do it those three tips are
the tips I got for you to go out and
crush your next job interview
