Boost Your Interview IQ

Are you sure you're the best candidate for the job, but not sure how to say so? 

Here are some tips to help you make your case:

1. Join Carole Martin, author of Boost Your Interview IQ, on June 3 at 8 pm EST to learn how to increase your confidence and dramatically improve the impression you make in interviews. During What You Don’t Say in an Interview Can Hold You Back, Carole will share her strategies to help you build a personal narrative that showcases your skills, knowledge, and personality. 

2. Check out Eric Cramer’s presentation on Active Interviewing in our archive.

3. As you research the company (and person you will be interviewing with), put together a chart of the key points you’ve learned in your research. Work these points into your interview answers and practice these answers out loud. 

4. The Muse website has reliably good advice on many career topics, including what you must communicate in interviews. 

5. Read Bernard Marr’s article to make sure you are ready for the one interview question most people aren’t prepared for.
