Know yourself, push yourself, be the one that gets hired!

Know yourself, push yourself, be the one that gets hired!

Let’s play a game together.

Imagine you are going to a job interview tomorrow.

Not any job interview though. This is THE one for your dream job. The chance of a lifetime.

You know there will be serious competitors there and you also know that the interviewers are brilliant and won’t take things for granted.

So play with me and answer these basic questions that are (too) often on the table:

📍how would you describe yourself in 3 adjectives?

📍What do you consider your biggest achievement?

📍What successful projects have you lead until now?

Easy questions, right?

As simple as googling “top keywords for job interview” to get a list as long as your arm that you think best describes you and your responsibilities.

But do you REALLY think these professionals in front of you will fall for it?

How many times do you think they have listened to “energetic, reliable, passionate” or “enthusiastic, team player, results driven” candidates?

If you stand in front of them, it’s because they went through your resume and they already know all this.

The question you must ask yourself is HOW DO I MAKE A DIFFERENCE? 🔥🔥🔥

How do I sparkle better and shinier than the others?

Forget about the obvious and brainstorm about yourself, about your successes at work, about what have made you proud, happy, passionate. Push yourself!!

And now, you feel this is not going to be so easy. Why?

Because seeing inside our true self is almost impossible as we all wear lenses in order to get through a life we want to be as close as possible to what we believe in.

The proof is that if you ask people around you to describe you, you will end up with unexpected adjectives about your behaviour. Surprise Surprise.

We are our harshest critics and our judgements about ourselves is always biased based on our education, experiences, and beliefs.

🚀🚀🚀 So here we go, you saw me coming from a mile away.

Coaching can help you. Don’t waste time.

Tell me what you would like to achieve in your job interview, and we will start from there to help you find what makes you a better candidate than anyone else.
