🚀 A Fresh Perspective on Interviewing Success 🚀

Have you ever prepared extensively for an interview, yet still felt nervous and unsure when the moment arrived? 🤔 You are not alone, we’ve all been there. It's time to change the game.

Here's the revelation: Interviews are not about rehearsed answers or fitting a mold; they're about problem-solving and creating win-win opportunities. 🚀

💡 The Problem:

Many spend hours practicing answers, seeking approval, and striving to be 'better.' This approach doesn't truly work. It only scratches the surface.

The Solution:

So, to understand what it is, we need to dive deep into what it is not - what's the game-changing solution? 👇

🔑 Introducing the True Essence of Interviews: Problem Solving! 🔑

❌ Interviews are NOT performances for someone else to judge.

❌ They're NOT about fitting a mold or gaining external validation.

❌ There's NO 'right' answer to speak, and you don't need all the answers.

❌ Interviews are NOT about accepting someone else's judgment or seeking their feedback.

✅ Interviews are Your Platform to Solve Real Problems. ✅

Remember these crucial decisions:

💡 Do you resonate with the company's vibe?

💡 Can you genuinely offer help?

💡 How would you contribute as if it's already your job?

💡 What do you need to know?

💡 How is the value you bring greater than your cost?

Here's the truth: Your worth isn't determined by others; it's revealed when you offer your best to solve their real challenges.

🚀 Approach Interviews with the Goal of Being a Problem Solver! 🚀

Your confidence will naturally shine when you believe in your ability to help. This philosophy not only boosts your performance today but shapes your career journey ahead.

🌍 Interviewing is about Changing the Game, Not Conforming to It. 🌍

Don't forget, not everyone may recognize your value, but that doesn't diminish it. It might be a matter of mastering how to present it compellingly, or it could be about finding the right environment.

🔍 The Real Reasons You Might Not Get Offers:

1️⃣ You haven't yet mastered the art of conveying your value in a compelling way.

2️⃣ You might be positioning yourself in the wrong environments.

Well said Okare Shaba, MBA..... Surprisingly, the interview for my current position was impromptu.... No time to plan or get dressed for it and I was nervous.... But, it was smooth because, I didn't see it as an interview but a conversation and it turned out perfect.
