Good point about focusing on what you can do for them as opposed to what they can do for you. It's easy to fall into the trap of focusing on yourself. Thanks.
Couldn't agree more! The level of preparation and understanding what they're looking for is the recipe for success. Thank you for everything you do Don, ton of value as always
I like to inform interviewers that I'm keen to learn about tech like testing shareability using a laptop and hooking up to a screen in meeting rooms. There are some technophobe out there, I'm not one of them. I always live in the hope the interviewer is nice and friendly as that relaxes me more.
One problem with telling the organization that you understand them. All too many companies don't have information about the company easy to find, if at all. I do support, and it doesn't really matter what the company does. What I need to know is how the department (IT in my case) works, and that varies from company to company and isn't available to read online. In many cases because it is propriety information. In some cases recruiters won't even tell me who the end client is.
Anxiety does not come from being unprepared, it comes from nervousness and bad experiences. Bad advice is as helpful as telling a depressed person don't be depressed and expecting them to instantly be better.
lack of preparation of anything causes anxiety that results in nervousness. Bad experiences either cast doubt on your ability or you you learn from your bad experiences, which makes you stronger and confident, and less nervous.
Your videos are very helpful. I wasn't nervous because I was well prepared.
