    Sep 18 2024

You have the opportunity in an interview to share who you are and build rapport with the hiring manager, says Find Your Dream Job guest Ann Tropea. Ann urges you to practice before the interview, to create a list of your most valuable offerings, prepare questions for the employer, and not be afraid to steer the conversation in a direction that allows you to offer your solutions to their problems. About Our Guest: Ann Tropea is cohost of the Career Bitches podcast. Ann is also an author, a public speaker, and an advisor for student media at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

  • How to Explain Why You Left Your Last Job, with Heather Joy

    How to Explain Why You Left Your Last Job, with Heather Joy
    Sep 4 2024
    Check out the podcast on Macslist here: (https://www.macslist.org/?post_type=podcasts&p=15383&preview=true) You’ve been fired or laid off, or perhaps you took time off for personal reasons. How much of that information do you have to share in an interview for a new job? Not much, says Find Your Dream Job guest Heather Joy. You can share the main point - you were laid off or took time to care for a family member - but anymore than that isn’t necessary. Heather cautions that if an interviewer continues to dig for more than that, it’s a red flag. She shares strategies for moving the conversation along to what you have to offer and how you can fill the need they have. About Our Guest: Heather Joy is the founder and owner of Write Path Resumes & Career Coaching.
