Yes, it\u2019s a pain to actually write something. It\u2019s hard and frustrating. But it makes it stick in your brain. That\u2019s important. You want your answers to be automatic. You don\u2019t want to have to think about your answers during an interview. Why not? Keep reading.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Have a backup plan.\u00a0<\/strong>Actually, for every question, write down THREE answers. Why three? You need to have a different, equally good answer for every question because the first interviewer might not like your story. You want the next interviewer to hear a different story. That way they can become your advocate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prove yourself.\u00a0<\/strong>Every question should be answered with a story that proves you can do what you\u2019re being asked about. \u201cHow do you lead?\u201d should be answered with \u201cI\u2019m a collaborative\/decisive\/whatever leader. Let me tell you about the time I \u2026.\u201d Always tell a story or have facts to prove you are what you say you are. More on how to construct and tell these stories in a future article.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Read the room.\u00a0<\/strong>All that brainpower you\u2019re not using to desperately come up with answers to questions? Look around. Focus on the interviewer. In the first 10 seconds, is there anything in their office, or about them, you can notice and use to forge a connection? A book on a shelf? A family photo? A\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=VuNTL3YYi5c\">painting<\/a>? Read the interviewer: is their body language open or closed? Are they tired and should you try to pep them up? Do they like your answer or should you veer in another direction?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make it to Carnegie Hall.\u00a0<\/strong>How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice. Same goes for getting a job. When I was in my second year of business school, I practiced my interview answers \u2014 out loud \u2014 until I could tell each story smoothly, without thinking about it (but not so smoothly that I was bored with the re-telling).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Reference:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2015\/03\/6-steps-to-succeed-in-every-job-interview\/\">https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2015\/03\/6-steps-to-succeed-in-every-job-interview\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How do you convince the person on the other side of the table to hire you?
