What can you do to set yourself apart in your interview? The most important aspect of successful interviewing is not your experience, your degree or your resume. That’s what got you the interview. The key to successful interviewing can be summed up in one word: passion. It’s your passion for the job that will set you apart from the crowd.
Hors d’oeuvres, wine, water and soda will be available during the networking portion of the evening beginning at 7:00 pm. The cost to attend this event is $10. Please use the event link to register.
How can you demonstrate your passion in the interview? Through your enthusiasm for the job and behavioral examples of how your passion has had a positive impact on results.
