The Ultimate Job Interview Framework
What you'll learn
- Job interviews don't have to be hard, difficult or painful Here, you will learn a model for interviewing that will help you stand out in a good way from all the people you are competing with on your interviews. I want to remind you. I can't help you be better at what you do. What I help you do is get an understanding of the job early in the interview so you can talk about what you've doe that matters to them and not just talk about what you've done. You'll learn the best way to answer, "Tell me about yourseld" to connect the dots for the interviewer so they know you fit the role quickly. Tell stories that sell your experience and great questions to ask at the end of the interview. I have a section dealing with the unique requirements of video interviews as well as what to do if the phone rings out of the blue with someone wanting to interview you. This will help you if you haven't interview in a long time or if your nerves get the better of you.

Description
You do a great job. You’re well regarded and have decided to look elsewhere. Something isn’t clicking. Your interviews are going nowhere and you can’t figure out why . . . or maybe you’re getting to final rounds but not getting the offer . . . or the right offer. The problem is that the skills needed to find a job are different than those needed to do a job. That’s where I come in. You are an expert at what you do but this is a different game than the one you’re playing.
I am an interview and career coach who, unlike a lot of career coaches, spent most of his career in executive search and is a member of the Forbes Coaches Council, a group of top coaches in the country. I am extremely good at interview preparation; after all, when I worked in search, I filled more than 1200 full-time positions plus consulting assignments.
This class will help you understand why, so often, the interview seems nothing like the job description, what your first decision MUST be when you get a phone call out of the blue from a screener, The Single Best Question to Ask on Any Interview, how to answer, "Tell me about yourself," or "Walk me through your background" in a way where you connect the dots for interviewers immediately instead of making them work hard (and why that is important, how to answer behavioral interview questions (not everyone should use the STAR framework. Some should use SOAR and some should use PAR), plus great questions to ask at the end of an interview so that you know what their expectations will be for you, as well as theirplans for following up with you and whether they have reservations.
There is a lot packed into this series AND you will have to practice to be great!
Who this course is for:
- Job hunters at all levels as long as they have some amount of professional experience.
