Recently attacking the job search myself, the title of this post resonated with me “Interview 101″. No matter how many times you’ve been through the job search and interview processes, it is so valuable to go back to the basics. Google! Use the tips and common interview questions. Go back over you strengths and your weaknesses, like you did when you graduated college. I used to think that because I’d been through the interview process so many times before I didn’t need to brush up on certain things… I know myself, I know how to answers typical interview questions. FALSE. Pretend like you know nothing about yourself and take the opportunity to re-evaluate yourself and learn about yourself all over again. Re-assessing who you are, what you’re good at, what you WANT out of a job, and what you want to GIVE to your employers. I can’t stress enough that you can never ever be too prepared for an interview. There is so much value in taking advantage of the type of content that you frequently post on this blog. Great stuff!
